A review by sarah_ls
The Yiddish Policemen's Union by Michael Chabon

4.0

This was an enjoyable book. My Yiddish wasn't up to snuff though, and this made it feel like a bit of a struggle. And when I did know a word, like latke, I couldn't understand how a potato pancake was wielding a truncheon. It was a fun book with a lot to offer. The next time I read it I need to remember that noz and shemmes mean cop. This was a very very funny book in a lot of places and I really enjoyed it.
