"I hear America singing Yiddish"
The "varied carols" that Walt Whitman hear America singing were not all in the English language. American literature was created in all the tongues that the immigrants brought with them to America. American Yiddish literature is an important part of American culture and of the 4,000 year old heritage of the Jewish people.
This second volume of a two-volume anthology includes poetry, short stories, novels, essays, memoirs, drama and literary criticism by 49 outstanding Yiddish writiers including H. Leivick, Joseph Opatoshu, I. J. Schwarts, Aaron Glantz-Leyeles, Jacob Glatstein, Aaron Aeitlin, Chaim Grade, Reyzl Zychlinsky, Rachel H. Korn, Itsik Manger, Kadya Molodovsky and Isaac Bashevis Singer.
