A gorgeously produced, bilingual edition of Nobel Prize laureate Isaac Bashevis Singer's canonical story―one of the most influential of the 20th century―about a hapless yet charmin gly resilient baker named Gimpl, who resists taking revenge on the town that makes him the butt of every joke. Singer's original Yiddish appears alongside his own partial translation, now completed and edited by writer and scholar David Stromberg, and the 1953 translation by fellow Nobel laureate Saul Bellow. With illustrations by Liana Finck and an afterword by David Stromberg.
