In a time of political uncertainty, tension, or turmoil, it is best to undergo a remedial retreat to away from the real world and reassure yourself from the controlled media narrative of bias. This book is one of them, one that would be guaranteed to win over your heart.

This is a timeless treasure trove of stories that is reminiscent of an oral tradition passed over generations of epic proportion. Crisp translation and correctly elevated atmosphere page by page, story by story, Sader’s Jewish Folktales exhibits a nightshade of morals and lessons that would be sure to please you no matter what your political affiliation or religious background is. It is a window to the Jewish culture and heritage that is pleasant, humorous, and thought-provoking across spacetime and living arrangement.

A masterpiece synthesis of beautiful parables, it is a must-have collection in your bookshelf next to the Arabian Nights.
