Four Stories - The B. G. Rudolph Lectures in Judaic Studies

Includes a lecture called "Second Generation" and four remarkable short stories by Etgar Keret: "Asthma Attack", "Shoes", "Siren", and "Foreign Language", the last of which has never before appeared in the United States. Openly discussing his family background for the first time, Keret brings to life the confused experience of growing up as an Israeli child of Holocaust survivors.
