Needs More Tevye,
This review is from: Tevye the Dairyman and Motl the Cantor's Son (Penguin Classics) (Paperback)
Miron writes an excellent introduction with excellent literary analyses of both the Tevye and Motl stories, and that might be the best part of this book. Furthermore, I would not say there is one definitive translator of Aleichem's work - they are all equally talented (and quite talented at that). But, then again, I am not a scholar like Reb Tevye!
Also included is a Yiddish glossary. I gave it four stars, though, because I simply wanted more Tevye - but it is also true that no single volume will contain enough Sholem Aleichem to fully sate a reader's appetite. |
