  • ""Novela. El humor y el lenguaje coloquial son los recursos primordiales en la reconstruccioń de la historia de una familia de origen judió-polaco. En base a las conflictivas versiones orales de sus integrantes logra memoriar los secretos, los triunfos y los fracasos compilados por tres generaciones sucesivas"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58. u http://www.loc.gov/hlas."
  • "The Book of Memories, originally published in Spanish in 1994, is a humorous yet moving exploration of a Jewish family's history, as seen through the eyes of three generations of women. The story begins with Grandfather Gedalia leaving Poland with forged papers to escape the army and sailing to Argentina, the "other America." Sometimes charming, sometimes stingy, this patriarchal figure, a peddler and sometime moneylender, heads a clan that includes, among others, the feisty and foul-mouthed Aunt Judith, and Uncle Silvester, a seducer of young girls who has such high principles that he turns himself in after missing the Argentine police raid on his socialist printing press."
