'The Last of the Just', Andre Schwarz-Bart's debut masterpiece, won him international acclaim and the Prix Goncourt. Now, four years after his death, Schwarz-Bart's last novel 'The Morning Star' has been rescued by his widow from his papers. The story begins in the aftermath of a nuclear war that has reduced our world to ashes. Luckily, a few found their way to the stars and into immortality. In the year 3000, nostalgic for the past, they return to earth in an effort to reconstruct the lives of the people who lived there. They discover the records of the wandering Jews of Judea, Palestine and Israel and an accounting of a mysterious massacre that had occurred ten centuries earlier. 'The Morning Star' flows between the poetic, the fantastic and the realistic as it weaves the tale of the Jewish people from Abraham to the Holocaust and into the future.
Andre Schwarz-Bart (1928-2006) was born in Metz, France. Fifteen years later his parents were arrested and shipped to a Nazi concentration camp. Schwarz-Bart served with the French Resistance and was himself imprisoned, but escaped. He won the Jerusalem prize in 1967. Julie Rose's acclaimed translations include Victor Hugo's 'Les Miserables', Alexandre Dumas's 'The Knight of Maison-Rouge' and Racine's 'Phedre', as well as works by Paul Virilio, Jacques Ranciere, Chantal Thomas and many others. She is a recipient of the PEN medallion for translation and the New South Wales Premier's Translation Prize.
