Overall, ""Stories and Pictures"" is a captivating and imaginative book that is sure to entertain and inspire readers of all ages.1906. To fully understand these Yiddish tales, we should need to known intimately the life of the Russian Jews who figure in their pages, and to be familiar with the lore of the Talmud and the Kabbalah, which colors their talk as the superstitions of Slav or Celtic lands color the talk of their respective peasants. A Yiddish writer once feared these tales would be too intensely Jewish for Gentile readers; and even in the case of Jewish English reading public, the East (of Europe) is East, and West is West. Perez, however, is a distinctly modern writer, and his views and sympathies are of the widest.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
