Book excerpt: Zelkowicz (b. 1897) was the scion of a wealthy Hassidic family, and had been ordained as a rabbi by age 18, but he soon left the study hall, and became teacher, bookkeeper and writer. He wrote short stories, folk tales, humorous pieces, plays, literary studies, reportage and articles. His pieces on Jewish folklore and history were published in newspapers and literary supplements in Poland and America. He became a member of the executive board of YIVO, the Institute for Jewish Research, and joined the staff in Lodz.When he was deported to Auschwitz in August 1944, the rich amount of research and copious notes that he took with him disappeared with him, but 27 notebooks remained behind in the Lodz Ghetto. His personal diary and the variety of articles that he wrote reflect the diversity and richness of his writings even under conditions of extreme physical deprivation and present a moving document of the nightmarish days with great precision and vivid details.

Book Collected Poems  1954 2004

Download or read book Collected Poems 1954 2004 written by Irving Feldman and published by Schocken. This book was released on 2009-01-16 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irving Feldman is a master chronicler of our collective experience and an overlooked treasure of American poetry. Feldman’s rich body of work exhibits his mastery of language from the biblical to the conversational, his Yiddish flair for the comic, his profound social insight and lucidity. He writes about everything from the Coney Island days of his childhood and his bohemian years in postwar New York to the art of Picasso and George Segal, from the Holocaust to its aftermath—in narrative and dramatic poems and personal lyrics that are by turns ardent, witty, biting, ecstatic, and heartbreaking. Long a favorite among his fellow poets (John Hollander has called his work “amazing in its moral intensity”), Feldman has remained true to the soul’s deepest callings: I have questioned myself aloud at night in a voice I did not recognize, hurried and disobedient, hardly brighter. What have I kept? Nothing. Not bread or the bread-word. What have I offered? Rebel in the kingdom, my gift has wanted a grace. This glorious gathering of poems displays Feldman’s entire career in all its variety and passion, and confirms his place among the great poets of our time.
