Collected Stories

Isaac Bashevis Singer

From Shelf: Nobel Prize for Literature winners 1971-2023

A collection of forty-seven short stories such as "Taibele and Her Demon" "The Unseen", "Gimpel the Fool" and "Yentl the Yeshiva Boy".

Isaac Bashevis Singer's work explores humanity in all of its guises. This collection of forty-seven short stories, selected by Singer himself from across the whole of his career, brings together the best of his writing. From the supernatural 'Taibele and Her Demon' to the poignant 'The Unseen', and from gentle humour in 'Gimpel the Fool' to tragedy with 'Yentl the Yeshiva Boy', these tales explore good and evil, passion and restraint, religious fervour and personal failings, within the traditional shtetls of pre-war Eastern Europe and post-war America.
