Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Originally appearing in the Warsaw daily Der Moment (1926-7), this intimate self-portrait by pioneering Yiddish actress Ester-Rokhl Kaminska (1870-1925) appears here for the first time in English. As it moves through her life, we see this towering artist and her art form emerge, observing how Kaminska navigates the perilous move from shtetl to city, stages illegal performances in unlikely venues around the Russian Empire, and eventually earns the exultant acclaim of her public. The memoirs richly disclose the texture of everyday life for working Jewish women and all the grit and hard-won glamour of backstage (or in her case, back-barn/barrack/barroom) life. An extensive introduction and notes by Mikhl Yashinsky provide historical context and an appraisal of Kaminska's epoch-making talent.
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Max Spitzkopf, the Yiddish Sherlock Holmes, " heads the famous Viennese detective bureau Blitz . . . He' s bold as a lion and takes the wildest risks." Meet Max Spitzkopf: legendary private eye, undefeated foe of villains, and passionate defender of the Jewish people.No matter how hopeless or dangerous the case, when " the investigatory profession' s greatest artist" is summoned, justice is assured. Aided by his trusty assistant, Fuchs, super-sleuth Spitzkopf deploys equal parts physical bravery and intellectual ingenuity- not to mention a knack for stealthy disguise- to unpick evilconspiracies, outwit the canniest of criminals, and restore moral order to the world.Giving a unique twist to a beloved literary genre, this complete collection of the fifteen Spitzkopf mysteries is also a vibrant testament to Jewish life, in all its variety, during the last years of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Reading the tales, with every iota of their linguistic verve and historical charm preserved in MikhlYashinsky' s translation, it' s easy to see why the young Isaac Bashevis Singer thought them " masterpieces."
