The Book of Blam, Aleksandar Tišma’s “extended kaddish . . . [his] masterpiece” (Kirkus Reviews), is a modern-day retelling of the book of Job. The war is over. Miroslav Blam walks along the former Jew Street, and he remembers. He remembers Aaron Grün, the hunchbacked watchmaker; and Eduard Fiker, a lamp merchant; and Jakob Mentele, a stove fitter; and Arthur Spitzer, a grocer, who played amateur soccer and had non-Jewish friends; and Sándor Vértes, a lawyer who was a Communist. All dead. As are his younger sister and his best friend, a Serb, both of whom joined the resistance movement; and his mother and father in the infamous Novi Sad raid in January 1942—when the Hungarian Arrow Cross executed 1,400 Jews and Serbs on the banks of the Danube and tossed them into the river. Blam lives. The war he survived will never be over for him.

In the 1940s, the entire world was in turmoil. Economies were failing, people were starving and governments felt the only way out of this dilemma was to initiate war. This is a work of fiction. It takes place sometime in the 1940s, which found the United States embroiled in two separate wars. One war was with Germany in Europe and the surrounding countries and oceans. Germany had essentially taken control of all of Europe. The second war was with Japan. This after Japan had bombed Pearl Harbor, Hawaii in the year of 1941. Germany and Japan had declared war on the United States, and the United States then declared war on both nations, with a mere few days. This story is about the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), who at this time was named the Office of Strategic Services (OSS). The Office of Strategic Services (OSS) was established by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, with the urging from one of his Colleagues from University. As result, the Colleague was named the head of an Administration, which was to later become the OSS, and with the help of the British Intelligence Agency, was able to build the organization with Agents and equipment. These Agents are sent covertly all over the world, to complete their missions on a timely basis. A special Project is created for them, which places them in precarious and lethally-dangerous positions and politics. They find themselves always calculating the odds and morality of humankind to the mission, and manage to find love and romance in the process.
