The Last Demon

Nobel Prize-winner Isaac Bashevis Singer is best remembered for his short stories, which drew on traditions of folk tales and Yiddish culture to explore good and evil, passion and restraint, religious fervour and personal failings with wisdom, wit and humanity. The three collected here, about a girl who pretends to be a man to study the Torah, a frustrated demon and a writer trying to understand a Holocaust survivor, illuminate eternal themes with supernatural grace.
