Pinchas Goldhar

The Collected Stories of Pichas Goldhar Pinchas Goldhar

A collection of stories by Australia's most significant Yiddish writer translated into English, some never before published. Goldhar was the literary voice of his generation, as well as a leading cultural and social commentator. This new collection will ensure that this wonderful writer is not forgotten.

He was the first to publish a Yiddish literary book, the first editor of a Yiddish paper, the first Yiddish writer to be included in Australian anthologies, the first to translate Australian writers into Yiddish and certainly was one of the founders of a literature written by "New Australians" before the term New Australian even existed. - H. Brezniak 1957
