by Janet Hadda (Author)
Isaac Bashevis Singer brought the vibrant milieu of pre-Holocaust Polish Jewry to the English-speaking world through his subtle psychological insight, deep sympathy for the eccentricities of Jewish folk custom, and unerring feel for the heroism of everyday life. His novels, including The Family Moskat and Enemies: A Love Story, and his short stories, such as Yentl and Gimpel the Fool, prove him a consummate storyteller and probably the greatest Yiddish writer of the twentieth century.
