ensykes's review against another edition
3.0
The introductory essay and the Hillel Hamlin translation of Benjamin the Third are great. The translation of Fishke the Lame (much of it written out in southern-style dialect to represent provincial Yiddish) was so distracting that I gave up and ordered a different translation. It’s really 5 stars for Benjamin, 1 star for the fishke.
