| Summary | "Der Ewige Jude" by August Vermeylen is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around Ahasverus, a shoemaker in Jerusalem, who shares his birthday with Christ and grapples with feelings of despair, purpose, and the search for meaning in a world filled with suffering and injustice. As he navigates the turmoil of his existence, he becomes increasingly engrossed in the teachings of Jesus, who sparks a flicker of hope and determination within him, yet leads him into a conflict of faith and doubt. At the start of the book, we meet Ahasverus, a despondent figure trapped in a dreary existence, forced to confront the stark realities of human life as he toils in obscurity. Despite his hard work as a shoemaker, he feels abandoned and suffocated by the weight of life's struggles, witnessing the suffering of others without finding solace himself. His internal turmoil ignites as he encounters Jesus, whose radical teachings stir a chaotic mixture of admiration and skepticism within him. As Ahasverus becomes more entwined in the events surrounding Jesus’ teachings and impending fate, he feels the tug of a deeper existential longing, setting the stage for a profound exploration of human desire, despair, and the search for redemption.
