Description
Isaac Bashevis Singer (1904 – 1991) is one of the most renowned Jewish writers of the 20th century. In his novel Daddy’s Home Court, Singer describes his life in pre-war Warsaw on Krohmal Street. On Krohmal Street, a pair of polished shoes would be worn for three years, Talmud and the secrets of Kabbalah were diligently studied, and people would get engaged, but break the engagements out of fear of war. Many leave Krohmal Street to Palestine or America, but red-bearded Rabbi Singer ruled the Rabbinical court.
