Subject: New release : French novel about three Yiddish poets

Dear Mendelyaner,

I would like to inform you that my lastest French novel, D'un pays sans 
amour, was been released last week. The novel deals with the life and work 
of three Yiddish poets : Peretz Markish, Uri-Zvi Greenberg and Melekh 
Rawicz. Sulamita Kacyzne, the daughter of Yiddish writer and famous 
photographer Alter Kacyzne, is approached by, Pierre a young man from 
Paris. Pierre askes her to deliver her memories about Yiddish life in 
Poland during the interwar period. Sulamita does it by telling the destiny 
of those three poets, who met in Warsaw at the beginning of the 20s and 
founded together the Khaliastre : Uri-Zvi Greenberg,the son of a hassidic 
rabbi, who emigrated in Palestine in 1923 ; Peretz Markish, the son of a 
Melamed in a Volynian shtetl, who left Warsaw in 1926 for the Soviet Union 
and became one of the stars of Yiddish literature in Moscow ; Melekh 
Rawicz, born in Galicia in a German/Polish speaking family, who was the 
secretary of the Union of Yiddish writters and journalists in Warsaw, and 
who left Poland in the 30s for a world tour before settling in Montreal in 
1941.
