Ludovic Bruckstein Ordre des livres

The extraordinary storyteller and playwright Ludovic Bruckstein presents us with a lost world of Jewish history and lore in the central European Carpathian region, now parts of Hungary, Romania and Ukraine, invoking now lost storytelling tradition of great 'maggids' of Jewish history.

The stories in this collection are stories of the lives and struggles of a wonderful variety of characters living in the Carpathian region, in the years leading up to a war that will suddenly and irretrievably destroy the pattern of their existence.
