He hit the motherlode. “I was looking for Bashevis Singer’s essays because I was interested in his non-fiction and worldview writing on literature, on Judaism and Yiddish, and also his personal philosophy,” Stromberg told The Times of Israel in a recent telephone interview from his home in Jerusalem. “What I didn’t expect to find, but what I did find, is that he’d already translated enough material for an entire book.”
