| Summary | "The Yoke of the Thorah" by Sidney Luska is a novel written in the late 19th century. It revolves around Elias Bacharach, a young artist grappling with his emotions and obligations as he becomes infatuated with Christine Redwood, a captivating young woman from a different world. The story approaches themes of love, cultural identity, and the tension between personal desires and social expectations. The opening of the narrative establishes a dreary November day, deeply setting the mood for Elias's melancholic state of mind. Struggling with artist's block, he ventures out into the city and encounters Matthew Redwood's costuming shop, where he first glimpses Christine, sparking a profound and immediate attraction. As he learns more about her and his feelings deepen, the novel hints at the challenges posed by their differing backgrounds, particularly the weight of tradition and the Jewish laws regarding intermarriage that loom over Elias. It establishes a foundation for the exploration of their relationship and the internal and external conflicts that will arise as they navigate their budding connection.
