	The Wishing-Ring A Novel S. Y. Abramovitsh Mendele Moyher Sforim Syracuse University Press Syracuse New York
		Michael Wex is the author of one novel, Shlepping the Exile; five plays; and a forthcoming book about Yiddish.
		Sometimes the narrator (Mendele the Bookseller) speaks from within the shtetl and sometimes from outside; and often he interweaves the high rhetorical prose of Hershl himself, reborn by the novel's end as Heinrich Cohen.
		S. Abramovitsh (Mendele Moykher Sforim) is a seminal figure in both modern Yiddish and Hebrew literature.

	Working Dogs Book Store - The Wishing-Ring: A Novel (Judaic Traditions in Literature, Music, and Art) (Mendele Mokher Sefarim , S. Y. Abramovitsh , Michael Wex)
		It is a testament to Michael Wex's sensitivity and skill as a translator that he brings Mendele's tone to life in the most enjoyable way.
		Mendele Moykher Sforim wrote with love, and bitterness, about the harsh conditions of Jewish life at the time.
		As a reader of Yiddish in translation, I have been disappointed many times by wooden or lifeless translations of this incredibly juicy language.

		Miriam Isaacs will lead the class through the stories of I.L. Peretz (in the original and in translation) in search of the evocative language he created to describe music and musicians.
		The class will cover a story – untranslated hitherto – about a lovesick fiddler possessed by the devil and finally, the tale of Avrom, the Bassist, about musical dumbness and spiritual ascent.

	MBR: Internet Bookwatch, May 2004
		An enduring anthology of classical works that reflect Yiddish daily life and culture with breathtaking clarity and pathos, Classic Yiddish Stories is ably and collaboratively translated into English by Ken Frieden, Tod Gorelick, and Michael Wex.

		Cobalt Blue is a surreal album of moody and intense music, blending piano, keyboards, saxophone, drums, and haunting vocals to create an immersive listening experience.

	COMANDO Archives -- November 1998, week 2 (#127)
		And what would KlezKamp be without Michael Wex and "Wexology?" Our folklore class will feature Itzek Gottesman speaking on the state of Yiddish in Israel and Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett's history of tableaux vivants and pageants of the Holy Land of the last 100 years, while our literature course unites returning scholars Anita Norich and Jeffrey Shandler.
		KlezKamp will be held, as always, at the kosher and comfy Paramount Hotel in scenic Parksville, New York, just a couple of hours or so from midtown Manhattan.
		As KlezKamp will run an extra day over shabbos this year, expect special shabesdik events, including group singing of nigunim, special lectures and panel discussions.
