The narrative focuses on the main character, Gabriel, a Talmud student and newcomer in the Jewish quarter, who becomes embroiled in the lives and struggles of those he encounters, including an old man named Jacob who is tormented by his past. The opening of the novel introduces the bustling atmosphere of the Jewish quarter in Prague on a wintry morning, depicting various characters engaged in their daily activities.
