- Summary:
- "Der ziser duft funem lebn (The Sweet Scent of Life) is a terrifying collection of horror stories with Jewish themes and from a bygone era. A rabbi commits the worst of sins when he lusts after a younger wife, evil creeps into an apartment building in interwar Germany, and a young girl experiences hell at sea. These are nerve-wracking and dark stories, but also political reflections on racism and misogyny."--Publisher's description.
