Writing in Tongues
Translating Yiddish in the Twentieth Century
By Anita Norich
About the Author
Reviews
"An excellent book . . . at no point is the discussion overly technical. First presented as part of the prestigious Stroum Lectures at the University of Washington, the chapter-lectures that make up Writing in Tongues are aimed at a general-but-educated audience. Norich writes clearly and simplifies abstruse ideas."—Eitan Kensy, Forward
Endorsements
"Writing in Tongues is sophisticated yet wholly accessible, completely engaging, and beautifully written. It makes particularly adept use of witty (and often hilarious) epigraphs, personal stories, and moving reflections on what it means to write in a minority language."—Barbara Henry, University of Washington
"Norich tells a compelling, moving, and intriguing story. No one has studied translation of Yiddish works into English so systematically, meticulously, and sensitively."—Hana Wirth—Nesher, author of Call It English
