ARTHUR MILLER`S
shattering novel about hatred
FOCUS
By the author of DEATH OF A SALESMAN and AFTER THE FALL

Written in 1945, Focus was Arthur Miller`s first novel and one of the first books to directly confront American anti-Semitism. It remains as chilling and incisive today as it was at the time of its controversial debut. As World War II draws to a close, anti-Semitism is alive and well in Brooklyn, New York. Here, Newman, an American of English descent, floats through a world of multiethnic neighborhoods indifferent to the racism around him. That is, until he begins wearing glasses that render him `Jewish` in the eyes of others, making him the target of anti-Semitic persecution. As he and his wife find friendship and support from a Jewish immigrant, Newman slowly begins to understand the racial hatreds that surround him.`A strong, sincere book bursting with indignation.` ( The New York Times Book Review )
