This volume includes a collection of Isaac Bashevis Singer’s early work, including 27 short stories, 7 sketches of early fiction, and a range of critical essays, childhood memoirs, and interviews.
Singer’s early literary career in Warsaw (1925-1935) was crucially important in laying the building blocks for his great achievements in Jewish and world literature as a storyteller of Polish Jewry. During this period, Singer worked as a journalist, writer and translator in the main Yiddish center in Eastern Europe. However, much of this work remains unavailable in English-language translation. This volume makes part of Singer’s early fiction and non-fiction available for scholarship, teaching, and a general readership for the first time.
