[.ca] Classic Yiddish Stories of S.Y. Abramovitsh, Sholem ... (ISBN 0815607601)

Ably and collaboratively translated into English:
Compiled and edited by Ken Frieden (B. G. Rudolph Chair in Judaic Studies at Syracuse University) Classic Yiddish Stories Of S. Y. Abramovitsch, Sholem Aleichem, And I. L. Peretz is a collection of the best short works by three influential nineteenth-century Jewish authors. Opening with Abramovitsch's novellas "The Little Man" and "Fishke the Lame", Classic Yiddish Stories goes on to present Aleichem's classic tales of the gregarious Tevye who struggled to raise strong-willed daughters, to Peretz's neo-hasidic tales immersed in hasidic traditions. An enduring anthology of classical works that reflect Yiddish daily life and culture with breathtaking clarity and pathos, Classic Yiddish Stories is ably and collaboratively translated into English by Ken Frieden, Tod Gorelick, and Michael Wex.
