Yiddish Lost and Found: Eavesdropping on the Ancestors

0/5 ( ratings)

Ellen Galford, author of The Dyke and the Dybbuk , takes a witty but unsentimental look at the fragmentary Yiddish she grew up with in mid-20th Century New York and New Jersey.
Splicing memoir, folklore, family gossip, and some entirely unorthodox social history, this is a visit--with rugelach and coffee--to a cultural and linguistic inheritance that three generations of enthusiastic assimilation couldn't kill.
