Le Clac-Dant

Book •
Louise Michel's novel seems anti-Semitic because she is using tropes of the rich and insensitive exploitative Jew. However, in the new world, the father stops being an exploitative capitalist and comes back to his true self.

The novel suggests that capitalism creates negative stereotypes, rather than it being essential to Jewish identity.
