Beschreibung:
Isaac Bashevis Singer (1904¿1991) was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1978. An immigrant from Poland, he arrived in New York following the steps of his older brother, Israel Joshua Singer. He wrote essays, stories, and other writings for the Forverts, at times under pseudonym. Saul Bellow translated his story ¿Gimpel the Fool,¿ which heralded his talent for a young generation of American Jewish readers. For years Singer published his stories in The New Yorker, where he developed a distinct style. His numerous books include Satan in Goray (1935), Gimpel the Fool and Other Stories (1957), The Magician of Lublin (1960), The Slave (1962), The Spinoza of Market Street (1963), A Friend of Kafka and Other Stories (1970), Enemies, a Love Story (1972), Old Love (1979), and Shadows on the Hudson (1997). His work has been translated into dozens of languages.
A gorgeously produced edition of Nobel Prize laureate Isaac Bashevis Singer's most famous story, about a hapless yet charmingly resilient baker named Gimpl who is the butt of every joke, appearing for the first time in Singer's own translation alongside his original Yiddish version and the canonical 1953 translation by fellow Nobel laureate Saul Bellow, with illustrations by cartoonist Liana Finck.
