Description
Yiddish Language
Published by the Sholem-Aleichem Folksfond in the years following the death of Sholem Aleichem, this fourteen-volume set represents one of the early authoritative editions of the beloved writer’s work. The Folksfond, established in New York to support the author’s family and preserve his literary legacy, undertook the important task of gathering and publishing his writings for a new generation of readers.
Printed in and after 1925 and entirely in Yiddish, these volumes reflect the enduring influence of the writer whose stories shaped modern Yiddish literature and introduced unforgettable characters such as Tevye the Dairyman. The set offers readers an opportunity to experience the humor, humanity, and sharp social observation that made Sholem Aleichem one of the most widely read authors in the Yiddish-speaking world.
