The Bachelors' Club

Focusing on ghetto life, the 1892 short story showcases Israel Zangwill's keen insight into the experiences of Jewish communities, earning him recognition as "the Dickens of the Ghetto." While initially a proponent of cultural Zionism, Zangwill later distanced himself from the idea of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. This new edition includes an introductory chapter from J. A. Hammerton's English Humourists of To-Day, making it a valuable addition for enthusiasts and collectors of Zangwill's literary contributions.
