THIS book adds an even richer record to national literature in this volume devoted to the bituminous miners. These soft coal mines are located in many different parts of the country and the background is more diversified and the miners of a wider racial variety. The book is based on three years of research which had the author recording songs directly from the miners, checking old legends and verifying historical facts.

A beautifully written prose work, Tsing is a multi-layered narrative that combines a wholly fictional novel-within-a-novel with an episodic chronicle of the narrator's present as a traveler to and visiting writer in the United States. Much more than an "ordinary" postmodern text, Tsing is a quiet and moving paean to the narrator's deceased father. Beginning with a series of imagined vignettes involving a father and a daughter, Albahari weaves both real and imagined narrative fragments together with considerable skill. As Albahari's fragments - simple stories about persons approaching each other, spending some time together, and eventually going their separate ways - accumulate, his deft combination of paradox and poetry provides a kaleidoscopic view of memory, love, and loneliness.

The Jewish, Odesa-born poet, Semyon Izrailevich Lipkin (1911-2003), was a central figure in modern Russian literature, although until recently, he was best known in the West for his role in preserving the manuscript of Vasily Grossman's Life and Fate from the KGB. As a Soviet journalist in WW2, he witnessed and wrote about the horrors of Stalingrad, which led the Nobel Laureate Josef Brodsky to refer to him as 'Russia's war poet'. Later, during the years of Stalin's deportation of ethnic groups, Lipkin translated and preserved the language and writings of Tajiks, Uzbeks, and Tatars and, in doing so, became a living repository of their culture for which he risked censure and arrest from the Soviet authorities. In this memoir, Lipkin's humanity, civic courage, and friendship with many important Russian writers - Anna Akhmatova, Marina Tsvetaeva, Andrei Platonov, and of course, Grossman himself - shine through the reports of terror and oppression that characterized this most turbulent period of Russian history.

The Jerusalem Review is published in Israel, and is meant to be distributed all over the world. It includes translations from Hebrew literature ancient and modern; contributions by Jewish writers in the Diaspora; essays on various aspects of Judaism, Israel, the Middle East, and related topics, and a section devoted to the visual arts in Israel. It also seeks to establish a genuine dialogue with non-Jewish authors and intellectuals. We wish to exhibit both the pluralism and the unique character of spiritual, cultural, artistic, and educational trends existing in contemporary Israel. Despite the limited number of Hebrew speakers and readers, Hebrew is one of the classical languages of West and East alike, and perhaps the only classical language still spoken today. Its vitality and richness are also manifest in the achievements of contemporary Israeli literature. The Jerusalem Review seeks to transcend the barrier of language and to cultivate a joint Israeli-Diaspora forum based on mutual exploration of cultural issues and reflection on many dimensions of Jewish heritage. In addition, we intend to reach the non-Jewish intellectual and enlightened media ambiences, and initiate a dialogue with Palestinian, Arab and Muslim writers and academy elites from a standpoint of mutual respect.
