Death and Other Nuisances
Satires, short stories, essays and poems make this book unique. Easy to read, easy to enjoy. Sparkling and witty. A place where fantasy and reality collides. Paradoxically(or not?), Death and other Nuisances is a tribute to life.
The Two Apostles
Falling in love. Failure. Larry David. Gandhi. Noodle-slurping. Orange thieves. Transcendence. Super-sized Chinese toddlers. Dolphins. For most, these things have nothing in common. Not so for David Cantor, economy-class vagabond and incorrigible dreamer.Written primarily on several long international flights, this story is as much a run-of-the-mouth commentary on modern life's abundant absurdities as it is a quixotic quest to find one's place in the world. The Two Apostles follows the author's hapless journeys across the globe and back - rediscovering home, family and self on the way - only to end up on a beach in Australia, poised to embark on his greatest adventure yet.Here we were in a tight embrace, hearts pounding like the tide. In front of us were these two large limestone Apostles that had broken away centuries ago from the earth behind us.

His immense popularity across a variety of media, his pride in his Jewish heritage, and his engagement with pressing political issues distinguished him from other headliners of his era. Paying equal attention to Cantor's humor and politics, Weinstein documents his significance as a performer, philanthropist, and activist. Many show business figures quietly shed their Jewish backgrounds or did not call attention to the fact that they were Jewish. Cantor was different. He addressed the vital issues of...

The Invention of the Jewish Gaucho
By the mid-twentieth century, Eastern European Jews had become one of Argentina's largest minorities. Some represented a wave of immigration begun two generations before; many settled in the province of Entre Ríos and founded an agricultural colony. Taking its title from the resulting hybrid of acculturation, The Invention of the Jewish Gaucho examines the lives of these settlers, who represented a merger between native cowboy identities and homeland memories. The arrival of these immigrants in what would be the village of Villa Clara coincided with the nation's new sense of liberated nationhood. In a meticulous rendition of Villa Clara's social history, Judith Freidenberg interweaves ethno...
