In My Father's Court
In My Father’s Court
One of Isaac Bashevis Singer’s most iconic books, In My Father’s Court is a poignant memoir of his childhood in the household and rabbinical court of his father. This collection of vignettes is full of spirits and demons, washerwomen and rabbis, beggars and wanderers who filled Krochmalna Street - the alley-like block that contained an entire universe of Jewish life, which Singer forever memorialized in this volume. The remembrance of Singer’s pious father, his rational yet adoring mother, his sister and brother, and the never-ending parade of humanity that marched through their home is a portrait of a magnificent writer’s young self and of the world, now gone, that formed him.
