A House of Seven Windows by Kadya Molodowsky

A House of Seven Windows by Kadya Molodowsky

A collection of short stories. While many of the stories are set in Europe and are memoirs of Jewish shtetl life, others depict the dilemmas of immigrants wrestling with their own identity - stories about adapting to a culture, yet attempting to maintain traditional customs, stories about the inability of one generation to understand the other.

Kadya Molodowsky was born in Bereza Kartuska, a town in Belarus. She was active in the Yiddish social and literary movements in Kiev and Warsaw in the 1920s. Her books of poetry include Paper Bridges: Selected Poems of Kadya Molodowsky.

Leah Schoolnik has translated other prose works by Kadya Molodowsky and short stories by Yossl Birstein, Avrom Dubleman, Pincas Berniker, and Osher Schuchinsky.
