Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. In Yiddish. 240 pages, 237 x 156 mm. Moishe Nadir (pseudonym of Isaac Reiss) was a Yiddish poet and humorist. Born in eastern Galicia, Nadir emigrated to New York at the age of 13 and at 16 began to write lyrics in which he emphasized the hardships of the immigrant generation. His later lyrics were often bitingly satirical. Nadir also published feuilletons, essays, short stories, plays, and criticism in dozens of different Yiddish periodicals and anthologies, as well as dozens of his own books.

The pseudonym Nadir ("na dir, " as in "take this" or "take this and choke on it") embodies some of the daring, acid humor of his work in leftist Yiddish publications the Frayhayt, Hamer, and Signal during the 1920s and 30s.…
