Bringing together 24 contemporary writers from 19 different countries, this anthology captures the exuberant storytelling tradition of the Jewish people that which has been shaped by centuries of legends, folklore, and mysticism. These writers -- from Central Asia, Iran, Morocco, Russia, Siberia, Israel, Latin America, Europe, and the United States -- show the diverse strains of the Jewish fabulist imagination. Teeming with passion and humour and rooted in the triumphant and tragic history of a people, these stories illustrate the Jewish fascination with the mysteries of the imagination and the endless possibilities of life.
