Book Review of The Yiddish Policemen's Union

The Yiddish Policemen's Union
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 3


It took awhile to get into, being as there is a lot of yiddish and no glossary, but after awhile the yiddish just flowed into the story and the writing is beautiful. It is truly the best book I read all last year. Chabon has a style all his own that takes my breath away and leaves me, even in a crowded restaurant, which is where I do most of my lunchtime reading, entranced with his fictional world.
