Tevye is the compassionate, lovable, Bible-quoting dairyman from Anatevka, and Tevye the Dairyman is a heartwarming and poignant account of life in turn-of-the-century Russia. Through the workaday world of a rural dairyman, his grit, wit, and heart, his daughters' courtships and marriages, and the eventual menace of the pogroms, Sholem Aleichem reveals the fabric of a now-vanished world. Motl is the clear-eyed, spirited, mischievous boy who narrates Motl the Cantor's Son, a comic novel about his emigration with his family from Russia to America. It is a journey that mirrors a larger exodus, telling the story of the disintegration of traditional Jewish life and the beginning of a new chapter of Jewish history in America.

After reading the Tevye sections I still didn't know what to think. The tone was wry, the culture obvious (I think I missed a lot), the eliminated stories were so heart-rending, and the ending so typically Tevye that I felt like I was living through the confusing 2016 election again. ;)
Highly recommended. Still in awe that somehow this classic turned into yet another classic. Neither better than the other in my opinion. ( )
