Off to @aseees.bsky.social. I’ll carry my advance copy of “In the Shadow of the Holocaust: Short Fiction by Jewish Writers from the Soviet Union” in my tote; co-translator Harriet Murav will also! Do stop one of us to take a look! It’s already on at least a couple of syllabi in winter/spring 2026.

Getting close to publication of my and Harriet Murav’s new book of translations of Holocaust lit from Yiddish and Russian. Pub date: Feb 10, 2026 but if you pre-order (wherever books are sold) the book will be in your hands in late December. @stanfordpress.bsky.social bit.ly/HolocaustShadowSUP2026
In the Shadow of the Holocaust | Stanford University Press
A first-of-its kind collection of short stories that provides an underappreciated perspective on the Holocaust, as it was experienced and remembered in the former Soviet Union.
