Superbly readable biography of a Galician Jew who converted to Islam, was born in 1900 and covering the first 32 years of his life.
His description of his life in Central Europe in the early 1920s is surprisingly recognizable for its moral decay and his clear fascination and adoption of Islam is both well explained and credible. And even though his love for Islam is occasionally seen through too rosy tinted glasses, he is also not completely without critique.
