Product Description

Synopsis
Shadows of Berlin is, in part, a bleak chronicle of life in Europe growing ever more hostile at the edge of World War II, part mythic parable, Bergelson's stories - passionate, honest, dark, and often hilarious - hint at the possibility of redemption even as they suggest a horror just around the corner. Dovid Bergelson (1884-1952) is considered to be one of the best Soviet Yiddish writers of the twentieth century. He was executed in 1952, as part of Stalin's purge of Soviet Yiddish culture.
