Summary
John Irving: Queen Esther
Esther Nacht was born in Vienna in 1905. On the way to America, she lost her father, and shortly after arriving in Portland, her mother was killed by an anti-Semitic group. She was left completely alone and ended up in Dr. Larch's orphanage. Since there were almost no Jewish families in Maine to adopt her, and prejudice against her was deeply rooted, her fate seemed inevitable - she was doomed to a life without a home. It wasn't until the age of fourteen that the Winslow family came into her life – distinguished benefactors from New England who believed that humanity and humanity were more important than origin and religion. Thanks to them, Esther learned the true meaning of belonging for the first time. But the past still reached her. In search of her own roots, she returned to Vienna, while the shadows of history continued to shape her destiny until she left for Jerusalem in 1981. The novel *Queen Esther* is about the fact that the family is not necessarily the one we were born into, but the one that accepts us exactly when we need it the most. This warm, deeply moving and masterfully told work once again confirms that John Irving is one of the most significant and beloved contemporary storytellers.
