The Imported Bridegroom And Other Stories Of The New York Ghetto (1898)

""The Imported Bridegroom and Other Stories of the New York Ghetto"" is a collection of short stories by Abraham Cahan, published in 1898. The stories are set in the Jewish immigrant community of New York City in the late 19th century and explore themes of assimilation, identity, and the challenges of life in a new country. The title story follows the experiences of a young Jewish woman who is brought to America to marry a man she has never met, while other stories feature characters struggling with poverty, discrimination, and the clash of traditional values with the demands of modern life. Cahan's writing is known for its vivid descriptions of immigrant life and its ability to capture the struggles and triumphs of the people who made up this vibrant community. ""The Imported Bridegroom and Other Stories of the New York Ghetto"" remains a classic of Jewish-American literature and a powerful testament to the resilience and determination of immigrant communities in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
