description: Isaac Bashevis Singer’s work presents a paradox. He is at the same time a Yiddish writer and modern writer, and his vision is both involved in and removed from either tradition. This is the ﬁrst book length examination and appraisal of his work. It is also the ﬁrst book to sketch his life, using biographical material that has never before appeared in print.
