?לאן (Whither?)

Whither? is a novel by Mordecai Ze'ev Feierberg, a Jewish Hebrew writer from Russia, published posthumously shortly after his death in 1920. The narrative explores the struggles of a young man grappling with faith, enlightenment, and destiny, ultimately leading him to the land of Israel. This work is significant for its influence on Zionist thought and its role in the development of Hebrew literature, particularly in the context of symbolism. Feierberg's early death from tuberculosis cut short a promising literary career, making this novel a poignant reflection of his ideals.
