All the Holes Line Up

Zackary Sholem Berger is a poet, a Yiddish translator, a doctor. In this volume, he is also an observant Jew visiting other people's holy places and an American city dweller among the poets of pre-War Vilna and Yiddish-speaking Tel Aviv. Berger's observations and language are precise as a lancet and his observations are therapeutically acute. This volume showcases him at the height of his powers.
