Re: yiddish books on tape

[Lloica Czackis <mezzo...>]

Theresa,

There's also the excellent book "Mit groys fargenign / With Great 
Pleasure: A Century of Yiddish Writing", compiled and edited by Heather 
Valencia and published by the Oxford Institute for Yiddish Studies, UK.  
It is a complilation of Yiddish literature (prose and poetry) with a 
respective glossary for students of Yiddish.  It comes with 8 CDs with 
readings of the texts by native speakers.

I believe it is available from The Yiddish Voice (Boston) for 38 dollars 
(www.yiddishstore.com/bookandcdshe.html) and also from the Maison de la 
Culture Yiddish-Bibliothèque Medem (Paris) for 20 euros plus shipping 
(www.yiddishweb.com).

If you wish to order from Paris please write to me on bikher (at) 
yiddishweb(dot)com(dot)

Best wishes,

Lloica
