Book An American Rabbi in Korea

Download or read book An American Rabbi in Korea written by Milton Jehiel Rosen and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2004-06-24 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A firsthand account of the American Jewish experience on the front lines of the Korean War During the height of the Korean conflict, 1950–51, Orthodox Jewish chaplain Milton J. Rosen wrote 19 feature-length articles for Der Morgen Zhornal, a Yiddish daily in New York, documenting his wartime experiences as well as those of the servicemen under his care. An American Rabbi in Korea is an English translation of Rosen's important articles prepared by his son and annotated with background about Rosen's military service, a general introduction to the war and conflict on the Korean peninsula, and numerous maps and photographs. Rosen was among those nearly caught in the Chinese entrapment of American and Allied forces in North Korea in late 1950, and some of his most poignant writing details the trying circumstances that faced both soldiers and civilians during that time. As chaplain, Rosen was able to offer a unique account of the American Jewish experience on the frontlines and in the United States military while also describing the impact of the American presence on Korean citizens and their culture. His interest in Korean attitudes toward Jews is also a significant theme within these articles. The sum is a readable account of war and its turmoil from an astute and compassionate observer.

Book excerpt: One Sunday morning we were having brunch with some friends at a restaurant overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The discussion of favorite foods came up and someone asked our three-year old daughter, Shavonne, what were her favorite foods. Without hesitation she looked up, smiled and said, "Matzo balls and cornbread." -TYREE (CORNBREAD) When Shavonne said her favorite foods were matzo balls and cornbread, I immediately knew it would make a great title for a book or play. Later, when we decided to write this book, we both agreed it would be the perfect title. If you think about it, it says everything about us. -LES (MATZO BALLS) * * * Matzo Balls and Cornbread is the recipe for a love story between two people from different backgrounds who made a life together: Les, a white Jewish man, and Tyree, an African-American woman. The story focuses on their family histories, experiences growing up, careers, meeting, married life, and the wonders of parenthood. It is a story of adventure that takes them to Hong Kong, Singapore, Paris, Cape Town, Jerusalem, Budapest, and Dublin. It is a story of their professional success, as they rise to levels they hadn't thought possible, including their experiences with historical events that occurred in Los Angeles and the nation. And it is a story told with humor that expresses the joy they had while learning about and embracing each other's history and cultures, while merging those differences into a life that celebrates both. But mostly, it is a love story.

Book On the Landing

  • Author : Yenta Mash
  • Publisher : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 2018-09-28
  • ISBN : 160909249X
  • Pages : 143 pages

Download or read book On the Landing written by Yenta Mash and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-28 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these sixteen stories, available in English for the first time, prize-winning author Yenta Mash traces an arc across continents, across upheavals and regime changes, and across the phases of a woman's life. Mash's protagonists are often in transit, poised "on the landing" on their way to or from somewhere else. In imaginative, poignant, and relentlessly honest prose, translated from the Yiddish by Ellen Cassedy, Mash documents the lost world of Jewish Bessarabia, the texture of daily life behind the Iron Curtain in Soviet Moldova, and the challenges of assimilation in Israel. On the Landing opens by inviting us to join a woman making her way through her ruined hometown, recalling the colorful customs of yesteryear—and the night when everything changed. We then travel into the Soviet gulag, accompanying women prisoners into the fearsome forests of Siberia. In postwar Soviet Moldova, we see how the Jewish community rebuilds itself. On the move once more, we join refugees struggling to find their place in Israel. Finally, a late-life romance brings a blossoming of joy. Drawing on a lifetime of repeated uprooting, Mash offers an intimate perch from which to explore little-known corners of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. A master chronicler of exile, she makes a major contribution to the literature of immigration and resilience, adding her voice to those of Jhumpa Lahiri, W. G. Sebald, André Aciman, and Viet Thanh Nguyen. Mash's literary oeuvre is a brave achievement, and her work is urgently relevant today as displaced people seek refuge across the globe.
