We love to stereotype, to typecast and to pigeon hole. It’s one of our organising traits that serves many uses but also serves to stain and segregate, to find fault and to point out blame. In this volume we see if that servant can have two masters and two functions. The Jewish culture has been a mesmerizing source of life, art, tragedy, and beauty for millennia. To be Jewish is not a simple example of one person or one family; it is a collective form of identity. Jewish history has often been rightfully portrayed as turbulent, as a people being unfairly oppressed and downtrodden; marked out for discrimination and even death. But Jewish history also has darker notes against others when in its own ascendancy. Within this volume of short stories we have exampled people who thought of themselves as Jewish and wove that together with their literary skills to create some quite dazzling and unexpected works. These short stories explore and examine society and the lives all around them in times when the Jewish authors themselves were being closely watched. 1 - The Jewish Author - A Short Story Collection - An Introduction 2 - In the Penal Colony by Franz Kafka 3 - Rooms by Gertrude Stein 4 - My First Goose by Isaac Babel 5 - Gods in Exile by Heinrich Heine 6 - Cohen of Trinity by Amy Levy 7 - Jezebel of Valley Farm by E Philips Oppenhein 8 - The Converts by Israel Zangwill 9 - The Hoodoo by Martha Gruening 10 - Chopin Op 47 by Stanley Victor Makower 11 - August by Bruno Schulz 12 - The Book Binder of Hort by Leoplod von Sacher-Masoch
