The writings of David Bergelson-virtually unknown to readers in the United States-are now available in this exciting collection. Composed of two short stories and a novella, this volume brings to life Bergelson's rich, elegiac prose. Golda Werman's highly literate translation perfectly captures his elusive literary style.

Bergelson's writings evoke the declining world of small-town Eastern European Jews. His world captures the dreariness of the uncommitted life. His characters are cast adrift in a society whose traditions are coming unhinged by powerful modernist forces. In her Introduction Werman offers readers an engaging and tragic portrait of Bergelson, who was arrested on orders from Stalin and died in a prison camp in 1952.

Won’t buy again
Size: Tripod, Size: Tripod
It started out great. But then it came apart and my puppy almost swallowed the piece that makes noise. Otherwise, it’s been a good brand of bones. Just not this particular one. The end unscrews and came apart. Not great!

Not for super aggressive chewers
Size: Tripod
Had high hopes, but our super-chewer somehow manages to UNSCREW the ends of the toy. Had to throw it out so she wouldn’t choke

Great Chew Toy
Size: Tripod
Has been great for our medium sized dog who loves to chew everything. We didn't realize it makes a sound too, which helps keep his attention. So far it has held up well.
