Description
"Reprint, with minor changes, of the 1955 translation of Gerchunoff's 1910 classic volume about Jewish immigrants in rural Argentina. Twenty-six vignettes, with some inter-related characters, tell stories of customs, love, death, religion, prejudice, and assimilation. Skillful translation captures bilingual (Spanish-Yiddish) flavor of original. Stavans' essay provides useful historical and literary background"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
