Child Harold of Dysna by Moyshe Kulbak

A masterpiece from one of Yiddish literature’s true virtuosi, Moyshe Kulbak’s Childe Harold of Dysna appears here for the first time in a complete English translation. At once an exuberant celebration of Yiddish language and a searing indictment of capitalist excess, Kulbak’s long poem follows the journey of its protagonist from small town Eastern Europe to the metropolis of Weimar Berlin.
