In an absorbing narrative, the author reconstructs a young boy's murder and the ensuing storm of anti-Semitism that engulfed an otherwise peaceful Prussian town in 1900. Offering an instructive examination of hatred, bigotry, and mass hysteria, "The Butcher's Tale" is a modern parable that will be a classic for years to come.
