The second eleven stories were published in Yiddish in "Balade fun a kholem" (Ballad of a dream), by Blume Lempel (Tel Aviv: Israel Book Publishing House, 1986). 520 "Blume Lempel is a fearless storyteller whose imagination skillfully moves between the realistic and the fantastic, the lyrical and the philosophical. Her subjects like her settings -- Paris, Poland, Brooklyn, Tel Aviv, California -- range widely. A Holocaust survivor speaks to the shadows in her garden; a pious old woman imagines romance; a New York subway commuter forges a bond with a homeless woman; and in the title story, a mother is drawn into a transgressive relationship with her blind son. Lempel's narratives are masterpieces of poetic imagery and startling modernist touches, suffused with an abiding compassions"-- |cProvided by publisher. 504 Includes bibliographical references and index. 600 10 Lempel, Blume |vTranslations into English. 650 0 Short stories, Yiddish |vTranslations into English. 650 7 Short stories, Yiddish. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01117440 650 4 Short Stories. 655 7 Short stories. |2lcgft 655 7 Short stories. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01726740 700 1 Cassedy, Ellen, |etranslator. 700 1 Taub, Yermiyahu Ahron, |etranslator. 776 08 |iOnline version:Lempel, Blume, author. |tOedipus in Brooklyn & other stories |dSimsbury, Connecticut : Mandel Vilar Press ; Takoma Park, Maryland : Dryad Press, [2016] |z9781942134220 |w(DLC) 2016036370 938 Donohue Group |bDONE |nmvp00000011 938 Brodart |bBROD |n115528962 938 YBP Library Services |bYANK |n12922804 938 YBP Library Services |bYANK |n12922802 938 Baker and Taylor |bBTCP |nBK0018652239 994 C0 |bLHM 852 0 |bstacks |hPJ5129.L4175 |iA6 2016
