Synopsis
This is a delightful collection of Yiddish stories that bring alive an often forgotten world. See the world through the eyes of Rabbis, teachers, simpletons and schnorrers. With an eloquent introduction by the editors and beautifully rendered translations by such writers as Saul Bellow and Alfred Kazin, this collection is a tribute to a thriving and often neglected literary heritage.
