Description: "In this new English translation, Nomburg's stories explore modern Jewish life in the growing cosmopolitan city of Warsaw: young intellectuals in pursuit of truth and beauty; working class fathers tempted by schemes for easy money; and teenagers caught between desire and tradition.  By turns comic, satiric, and earnest, Nomberg's stories take the pulse of Warsaw's Jewish socity at the dawn of the 20th century." (page [4] of cover)
