A Crown of Feathers and Other Stories

More about the book

These richly hypnotic tales enfold the reader into Isaac Bashevis Singer's special world of imps, demons, lovers, and other mischievous creatures. His world is a world of feelings, driven by lust, lechery, greed, madness, and love. All of his creatures are seen with a clear but loving eye; all seem and are in fact possessed by good and evil, caught in fascinating dilemmas, now terrible, now wryly comic. Here is a dazzling new collection of stories from the fertile genius of Isaac Bashevis Singer, one of today's most entertaining and original writers. (from back cover)
