A yeshiva boy who became a poet
We invite you to listen to this conversation (in Yiddish) between Eli Benedict and
Yermiyahu Ahron Taub
Hear about his books and translations, especially about his new book Blessed Hands: Stories, an English translation of Frume Halpern's Gebentshte hent: dertseylungen. We read from his poetry, and discuss Taub's own life story.
