5.0 out of 5 stars
My favorite author; my favorite book . . .,
This review is from: Passions: Stories (Hardcover)
Isaac Singer is a genius. You wonder what does a Yiddish collection of short stories lose in the translation? These are wonderful stories with vivid characterizations, lush imagery, and plots rich with emotion and imagination. My favorite is Passions: a meditation on how man becomes obsessed with something--to the extent of transforming one's life--anything can become a passion. I've read this collection probably four times over the years, and the mark of a great story is how rich and complex it remains upon a second or third reading.
