I suggested Atonement earlier. I’m reading it again now, it’s better the second
time.
Also, I need to re-read Crime & Punishment regarding atonement--but there was
redemption/salvation, as I recall.

It takes a while for the main character to atone but the first book I could
think of was Singer's Kuntsnmakher fun Lublin (דער קונצנמאכער פון לובלין). I
haven't read the English translation but I assume the story is close to the
original.

How about a more modern novel, aptly named: Atonement by Ian McEwan. or an
old classic Jewish novel: Yoshe Kalb by I.J. Singer or Bernard Malamud's The

Subject: [ha-Safran] Novel w/ character who atones
A patron is looking for a novel – any novel, not a particular one – which
includes a character who does true atonement. Suggestions, anyone?
Thanks.
