Nineteen To the Dozen: Monologues and Bits and Bobs of Other Things (Judaic Traditions in LIterature, Music, and Art)

by Sholem Aleichem

In each of these monologues, a man or woman comes forward to tell the story to implied listeners - a rabbi, a doctor, or the author himself - who say nothing. The stories provide a portrayal of Eastern European Jewish society and contribute towards demystifying the shtetl.
