"The Grandchildren of the Ghetto" is a 1892 novel by British author Israel Zangwill (1864-1926). One of Zangwill's "of the Ghetto" books, it is a sequel to "Children of the Ghetto", which offers an insight into the generation of Jewish immigrants caught between the ghetto and modern British life in the late nineteenth century. A fascinating and thought-provoking novel not to be missed by those who have read and enjoyed other works in Zangwill's "of the Ghetto" series. Zangwill was a leading figure in cultural Zionism during the 19th century, as well as close friend of father of modern political Zionism, Theodor Herzl. In later life, he renounced the seeking of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Other notable works by this author include: "Dreamers of the Ghetto" (1898) and "Ghetto Tragedies" (1899). Highly recommended for fans and collectors of Zangwill's seminal literature. This classic work is being republished now in a new edition complete with an introductory chapter from "English Humourists of To-Day" by J. A. Hammerton.
