Opis

Rabbi Nachman of Bratslav (1772-1810) is widely considered to be one of the foremost visionary storytellers of the Hasidic movement. Howard Schwartz has compiled the most extensive collection of Nachman's stories in English yet. In addition to his famous Thirteen Tales, Schwartz includes here many stories, parables, dreams, and folktales.

Recenzje

These stories put Nachman chronologically at the front of the line of great Jewish storytellers such as Sholem Aleichem and Isaac Bashevis Singer... Lovers of good tales well told will find plenty of gems here.
