This book was a 19th century utopian blueprint for a modern state of Israel, making Zionism a cultural and political movement acceptable to Western governments and intellectuals. The novel opens in a Viennese cafe with the hero being invited to travel in luxury to Palestine and on to an island, returning after 20 years to found a Jewish state.
