Born in England to parents who were Orthodox Jews, author Benjamin Farjeon bridled under the austere demands of that tradition and ultimately emigrated to Australia. Although he rejected orthodoxy, Farjeon was deeply interested in Jewish culture and the way that it shapes the worldviews of believers. He addresses these issues directly in Aaron the Jew, which follows the life of upstanding protagonist Aaron Cohen.
