Who better to tell the story of the Jewish People than the tribe of Jewish storytellers? And what a tribe -- the European Jews; Proust, Kafka, Primo Levi, the Yiddish author Shalom Aleichem and Londoner Israel Zangwill, the American Jewish writers; Saul Bellow, Philip Roth and Cynthia Ozick, Brazilian Clarice Lispector, Canadian Mordecai Richler and, of course, the Israelis like Amos Oz and Nobel-winner S Y Agnon. The Babel Guide is a unique introduction to fiction by Jews from around the world available in English with inviting, informative reviews of 150 new and old Jewish classics, with an author database and a listing of all fiction translated from Yiddish and Hebrew into English.
