Cuando
lei por vez primera Gimpel, el tonto tuve la certeza de estar frente a un
relato profundamente ingenioso y hermoso, que me permitia adentrarme en todas
las capas de la historia como lo haria un arqueologo en el campo. Es la
integridad de la imaginacion humana lo que Singer transmite con tantisima
belleza

Alfred Kazin.

La primera coleccion de relatos de Isaac Bashevis Singer, Gimpel, el tonto,
es un hito en la literature universal que gano el aplauso unanime de la
critica desde su publicacion en 1957. La historia que da titulo a este
volumen nos acerca a las proezas de Gimpel, un ingenuo panadero que es
sistematicamente enganado por su comunidad pero se niega a tomar represalias
contra sus victimarios. Los protagonistas que desfilan por estas paginas dan
vida al prodigioso universo creado por la prosa inigualable de su autor. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Isaac Bashevis
Singer’s first collection of stories, Gimpel the Fool, is a landmark work
that has attracted international acclaim since it was first published in
1957.

The title story follows the
exploits of Gimpel, an ingenuous baker who is universally deceived but who
declines to retaliate against his tormentors. Gimpel and the protagonists of
the other stories in this volume all inhabit the distinctive pre-World War II
ghettos of Poland and, beyond that, the larger world created by Singer’s
unforgettable prose.
