The book "Jewish Sheygets" is the first collection by the world famous pianist Evgeny Kissin. It includes his Yiddish poems, short stories and translations of poems into Yiddish from the last several years.

In Yiddish, Kissin's "grandmother's tongue," the author finds the creative wellspring of his people, which provides him with a certain grounding in life and the moral fortitude to continue with his creative endeavors."
