Songs of the Shtetl - Paperback

by Marguerite Dorian (Author)

Through delicious drawings, yiddish songs along with their English translations, Songs of the Shtetl takes us on a sentimental journey to an small East European Jewish community from long ago. There is a parade of endearing characters: the miracle working rabbi, the rich boss, the poor, hard-working Hasid, the prankish tailor, the wandering musicians, and of course, the matchmaker. The book is filled with affection, tenderness, endearment, charm, and humor.
