Abstract

By a strange compulsion, many authors worked their own historical recreations–from Philip K. Dick to Philip Roth–recreating the history from the Second World War point, sometimes putting Hitler as the big winner, sometimes shifting elements in the framework of the events of the period. In this sense, The Yiddish Policemen's Union, by Michael Chabon, is a complex piece which retraces the path of obsessive rebuild a different world from the year zero 1939, but putting in the formula Israel and the Holocaust only to resume some formulaic and eventually stigmatizing images.
