Der Nister - Of my possessions (Yiddish tales)

Translated from Yiddish for the first time, Of My Possessions represents a high point in the literary oeuvre of Der Nister, who is undoubtedly one of the great protagonists of Yiddish-Russian modern literature. His unique style combines archaic forms of the Jewish literary tradition with the hypnotic rhythms of the Russian Symbolists and a Kafkaesque modernity.
