With the characteristic style of prophetic biblical stories, this book narrates the misadventures of the Jew Abdias, a character who unequivocally evokes the biblical figure of Job. However, Abdias is no modern Job. He is a person who suffers, who bears and endures, but not because he is a sinner: precisely because, quite the opposite, he is a pious and honest man."Con el caracter y la forma de las narraciones biblicas profeticas, este libro nos narra las desventuras del judio Abdias, un personaje que inequivocamente reproduce la figura biblica de Job. A pesar de ello, Abdias no es ningun Job moderno. Es una persona que sufre, que aguanta y soporta, pero no porque sea un pecador, sino precisamente por lo contrario, porque es un hombre piadoso y honesto.""

Adalbert Stifter

Adalbert Stifter (1805-1868) was an Austrian writer, painter and poet closely associated with the Biedermeier movement in European art. Following his studies at the University of Vienna, he worked as a tutor for aristocratic families before becoming a supervisor of elementary schools. He is particularly renowned for the vivid descriptions of natural landscapes in his writing, and has been celebrated by both German and English writers including Rainer Maria Rilke, Thomas Mann, W.G. Sebald, W.H. Auden and Herman Hesse.
