This mythic ancestor is of course dead but basically a character in the novel given how much Asher dreams about him. We also learn about Asher's mythic ancestor, which is another name for Asher's great-great-grandfather on his dad's side.And we meet his father, Aryeh, who is always busy traveling for the Rabbi and telling Asher to drink his orange juice before the vitamins go out of it. We meet his mother, Rivkeh, whom Asher draws falling backwards in a rowboat.
The chapter starts with Asher Lev narrating in the first person, telling us that yes, he is the controversial creator of the painting Brooklyn Crucifixion, and no, he's not gonna apologize for it.
