by Alexander Eliasberg

Published in 1916, Sagen polinischer Juden (Legends of Polish Jews) is an anthology including fifty Hasidic legends, which come from multiple sources in yiddish. Their main characters are the most remarkable leaders of the Hasidic Movement.

[Agnieszka · Rating 4 out of 5]

Książka pomaga poznać i zrozumieć odrobinę kulturę i religię żydowską

[Kiril · Rating 3 out of 5]

Really clever stories, crossing over between mythical and religious. They make you kind of feel that you can trust God no matter what. A pity I'm an atheist :)
