This is a collection of short stories, each of which is based on some experience of passionate love in the life of a man. Female characters in all of the stories are undeveloped; serving principally as objects in the life of the inevitably male protagonist rather than as characters in their own right. This is simply Singer's treatment of his material. Most of the stories touch upon the Jewish experience, particularly during and immediately after World War II and, in particular, the experiences and circumstances of those Polish Jews who emigrated to the United States. Nevertheless, these stories deal intensely with the male/female experience in Singer's understated, economical style. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
In this masterly collection of stories, lsaac Bashevis Singer once again weaves bewitching fables from seemingly ordinary lives, showing us with subtlety and compassion humanity at its most mundane and mysterious. From modern apartments in Miami to nineteenth-century Polish villages, from bravery in wartime Warsaw to a different kind of courage in Lisbon, these tales span the world and the range of human life.

Set in the Jewish world...whether E European immigrants to US; a Jewish family in Lisbon revealing their heritage; poor Polish peasants; or magical tales from Yiddish folklore. There's a hilarious account of a deranged fan stalking the author; and inspirational tales of religiously inclined peasants who succeed despite all the odds; a rich man leading a double life; and a poor teacher who hooks up with a witch..
Utterly brilliant writing. ( )
