Why read it?

1 author picked Klezmer as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

In another life, I believe I was a traveling Klezmer musician. I’m not sure why I am not today, but such is how it is. In any case, this book translates the life and energy of Klezmer music into a fun and whimsical tale of a young klezmer musician. Great pacing and fun dialogue keep the story moving. And there’s something about European comics that is a bit more wild and fanciful than American comics.
