Preface - Issue 20

 

Welcome to this delightful new issue of Jewish Fiction .net! In honour of our 20th issue, we bring you 20 fabulous stories, originally written in Yiddish, Hebrew, and English. And in celebration of Pesach, there are two stories relevant to this holiday: “The Seder” and “Making Matzah.”
