Critic reviews

"I love the meticulous, evocative layering of voice and effects, which draw you deep into a mysterious tale of faith, family and art. Sue Zizza and her talented crew get textured and touching work from a great cast. Bewitching audio drama!" (David Cote, Time Out New York)
"A real winner! Great acting, music, production values, and a terrific script makes this story very accessible, even to those who are not Jewish. I was caught up in the story, couldn't wait to hear what happened next." (Tom Lopez, ZBS Foundation)
As Rivke, Tovah Feldshuh is perfect.” (Amy Goldschlager, Locus Listens to Audiobooks)

Loved it

I absolutely loved it. The story is lovely and the music is wonderfully familiar. You can still hear music like that in Lublin whenever you pass by or enter the Mandragora restaurant while wandering through the Old Town square.

Curious

I got this because I thought I would find it funny. The jury's still out because I haven't finished it yet but so far (about halfway through) I'm not really getting the humour. Probably just me in the wrong frame of mind, and I will give it another go. I have probably missed the point.
