Reviews
"A transporting work of borderlands, barroom brawls, and rich characters, The Tavern of Popricani is a ticket to a lively world at once familiar and foreign, distant and near. Ollie Elkus' translation masterfully recreates the magical dichotomy of Horowitz's original, bringing out a captivating, modern sensibility against a historical backdrop full of color and music. Best paired with a glass of Romanian red!" Sebastian Schulman, Executive Director, KlezKanada

Synopsis
In this novelistic account of his childhood in the Romanian countryside, Yitskhok Horowitz charts his episodic memories in the literary voice of his child self. The sole Jewish family in the village of Popricani, the Horowitzes ran the local tavern, which provides the backdrop for this child's-eye view of events, from wolf chases to serpent possessions, and culminating in the dramatic local echoes of the Romanian Peasants' Revolt. By turns endearing and unnerving, The Tavern of Popricani offers and account of the rhythms of life for one Jewish family in the hinterlands of Eastern Europe.

    Books arrived in 2 days, even though the shipping estimate was 5 days. The set of books packed very well and were in pristine condition. They came better than described. They were listed as very good, but are like new. I couldn't be happier. I would certainly buy from this seller again. This was a great value for the price. Thank you so much!!

    The book came packaged extremely well, and left no chance of being damaged in shipping. The book sadly did not come with a dust cover I expected, but after contacting the seller and asking if they maybe forgot it or could find it lying around somewhere, they refunded me half of the price for the inconvenience. Extremely helpful and kind customer service. Thank you Nick!
