Now in a deluxe boxed set， The Library of America's three-volume collector's edition of the beloved Nobel Prize-winning writer and master storyteller. First pubished ten years ago to mark the centennial of the birth of Isaac Bashevis Singer， one of ten American writers to be awarded the Nobel Prize and perhaps the most influential and beloved Jewish American author， Isaac Bashevis Singer： The Collected Storiesis now reissued in a deluxe boxed set. Beginning with "Gimpel the Fool，" whose title story brought Singer to prominence in America when translated from Yiddish by Saul Bellow in 1953， and concluding with "The Death of Methuselah，" the collection published three years before his death in 1991， this three-volume edition brings together for the first time all the story collections Singer published in English in the versions he called his "second originals"—translations he supervised and collaborated on himself， revising as he worked. In addition， Collected Storiesincludes thirteen previously uncollected stories from the Ransom Center archives.

Here are nearly 200 stories in all—the full range of Singer's vision encompassing Old World shtetl and New World exile. Born in Poland in 1904 into a family of rabbis， Singer was raised in the traditional culture that was to be annihilated during World War II， and his haunting stories testify to the richness of that vanished world. Singer's Old World stories reveal a wild， mischievous， often disturbing supernaturalism evocative of both local storytelling traditions and dark undercurrents born of Singer's own concerns and obsessions.

As a special feature， the boxed set also includes Isaac Bashevis Singer： An Album， a compact illustrated biography accompanied by appreciations of and anecdotes about Singer from some of today's leading writers， including Cynthia Ozick， Jonathan Safran Foer， Francine Prose， Nicholas Dawidoff， and Joyce Carol Oates， among others. Isaac Bashevis Singer (1904-1991) is the most famous Yiddish writer of the twentieth century, and translations of his works have made him one of the most beloved in English. A prolific writer who vividly conjured the annihilated Jewish world of eastern Europe, he spoke to the fears, longings, and ambivalence of America's modern nation of immigrants. Singer drew on folk memories and mystical traditions to create a body of work that moved dramatically from the realistic to the fantastic, in ways that startled readers and inspired other writers. Singer's characters—often Holocaust survivors haunted by their immediate past and disoriented by American reality—dramatized the conflicts not only of postwar American Jews, but of an entire society committed both to cultural pluralism and to assimilation.

Ilan Stavans is the Lewis-Sebring Professor in Latin American and Latino Culture at Amherst College and the editor of The Oxford Book of Jewish Stories and The Poetry of Pablo Neruda. His work has been translated into half a dozen languages.,,,
