The Wandering Jew Has Arrived by Albert Londres is a new translation by Helga Abraham of Le Juif errant est arrivé, first published in France in 1930. The text is a collection of twenty-seven articles by Londres originally published in the mass-circulation newspaper Le Petit Parisien. One of the great journalists of his time, of any time, Londres was born in 1884 and died in 1932 when the passenger ship taking him back to France, after carrying out a major and mysterious investigation in China, caught fire and sank in the Gulf of Aden. If he was writing now he would be called an investigative journalist. He wrote on prisons, colonial labour, prostitution and madness and is recognised as a source for Hergé’s cartoon character Tintin, whose first journalistic adventure, set in the Soviet Union, was published in January 1929; Londres’s own highly critical account of the Soviet Union had appeared in 1920.
