Oy Vey = Uff Da
Neal Karlen will be in the store at 3:00pm tomorrow (Sunday, April 13) to talk about his new book The Story of Yiddish: How a Mish-Mosh of Languages Saved the Jews. The event--like almost all our events--is free and open to the public.
If you're impatient, you can get a sneak preview of his story in this interview in the Minneapolis StarTribune. The article even includes some Yiddish basics ("The shlemiel spills the milk, the shlimazl gets spilled on."), so you can hit the ground running.--David E
