This 2023 Sydney Taylor book award winner centers around an isolated girl named Aviva, a ghostly dybbuk only she can see, and a mysterious 'accident' that affects everyone in the Jewish community of Beacon. An unusual take on a coming-of-age tale. Well-written, lots of subtle tension behind the scenes.</p</span> <a href="/library/nirr?post_id=1663149" class="slider_link" target=""> Read More </a>
    • <a href="/library/nirr?post_id=1663147" target=""> <span class="slider_title"> When the Angels Left the Old Country </span> </a> <span class="blog_date"> Friday, Jul 25th </span> <span class="slider_description"><p><img alt="" src="https://images.shulcloud.com/1205/uploads/Library/NewintheRosenLibrary/2025/whytheangleslefttheoldcountry.jpg" style="width: 128px; height: 193px;"></p> <p> by Sacha Lamb<br> <br> An engaging immigrant fairytale about individual purpose, the fluid nature of identity and the power of love to change and endure. Angels and dybbuks leave the shtetl and emigrate to Jewish New York, circa 1900. A unique historical fantasy, rooted in Yiddishkeit, with an angel, a demon, and a lesbian leading the cast. Whimsical and unique.</p</span> <a href="/library/nirr?post_id=1663147" class="slider_link" target=""> Read More </a>

During the Second World War, it grew to include words that were never a part of life in the shtetl, encompassing terms that described imprisonment, death and the dehumanization of the Shoah, Khurbn Yiddish. After the war, Yiddish speakers incorporated Khurbn Yiddish into their poetry and prose, compiling dictionaries and glossaries to analyze these new words. Includes pages of these new terms and their origins and meanings.</p</span> <a href="/library/nirr?post_id=1660997" class="slider_link" target=""> Read More </a>
