Summary:
"In this new selection, the literary heroes of Haim Hazaz join together to sketch his unadulterated, 'disappearing' portrait of the Jew, the Hebrew and the Israeli of all time. In the leaps of places and times, at times revealing and at times implied a hidden plot of characters, each of which is dubbed in its own jargon and language. The streets of Florence, the Yemenite houses in Jerusalem, the quarters on the banks of the Seine in Paris and the Eastern European town, are portrayed with a rare expression of ecstatic realism. The more local the spoken languages ​​of the protagonists, the more surprising the generality of the stories and the more convincing they are in their universality. The vigorous transitions from one geographical space to another and from a near-distant historical era, place fulcrums on which the panoramic basis of Jewish existence is built. In his fiction, Hazaz emphasized the most colorful and wonderful diversity in Hebrew literature, the writing villages of a single writer. In front of the flowing river of all the moving writings, this selection of stories seeks to be one 'reading bank', from which it will be possible to overlook the many districts whose river of creation has crossed over." -- Translation of back cover.

"במבחר חדש זה מצטרפים יחד גיבוריו הספרותיים של חיים הזז לכדי שרטוט דיוקנו הטמיר, 'הנעלם', של היהודי, העברי והישראלי שבכל הזמנים. בדילוגי מקומות וזמנים, לפרקים נגלית ולפרקים מרומזת עלילה נחבאת של דמויות, אשר כל אחת מהן מדוּבבת בעגה ובלשון המיוחדים לה. רחובות פירנצה, בתי התימנים בירושלים, הרבעים שעל גדות נהר הַסֶן בפריז והעיירה המזרח־אירופית, מצטיירים בכישרון ביטוי נדיר של ריאליזם אקסטטי. ככל ששפות הדיבור של הגיבורים מקומיות יותר, כן מפתיעה כלליותם של הסיפורים ומשכנעת באוניברסליות שלהם. המעברים הנמרצים ממרחב גאוגרפי אחד למשנהו ומעידן היסטורי קרוב אל רחוק, מציבים נקודות משען שעליהן נבנה בסיסהּ הפנורמי של ההוויה היהודית. הזז העמיד בסיפורת שלו את הגיוון הססגוני והמופלא ביותר בספרות העברית כפרי כתיבה של סופר יחיד. אל מול הנהר השוטף של כל כתבי הזז, מבקש מבחר סיפורים זה להיות 'גדת־קריאה' אחת, שממנה ניתן יהיה להשקיף על המחוזות המרובים שנהר היצירה שלו חצה לאורך יבֵל שנות כתיבה." -- Back cover
