Classic Yiddish fiction : Abramovitsh, Sholem… by Ken Frieden

I did not finish the entire book; I used it for a program on an I.L. Peretz, but found it interesting enough to read about the other authors.

A quote:
[from the Introduction] Thus leshon ha-kodesh (the sacred Hebrew language) was male-dominated, while the mame-loshn (or the Yiddish mother tongue) reigned at home and in the secular world. [p, 6]
