Shosha è la compagna di giochi del piccolo Aaron Greidinger, figlio del rabbino della via Krochmalna, a Varsavia. A Shosha, che lo ascolta con la meravigliosa stupefazione dei semplici, Aaron racconta storie fantastiche, fiabe, storie d'amore che non oserebbe raccontare a nessun altro. Ma l'incanto si spezza. La prima guerra mondiale è alle porte, il padre di Aaron è costretto a lasciare la città... Tornato a Varsavia ormai adulto e deciso a diventare scrittore, Aaron si getta nella vita febbrile della capitale, frequentando i circoli artistici, partecipando ai fermenti politici e inseguendo le promesse d'amore di molte donne. E sarà proprio una di queste, per capriccio, a trascinare Aaron nei luoghi della sua infanzia, in via Krochmalna, nel ghetto. "Shosha" può essere letto in molti modi: come la parabola dell'ebreo sradicato, come la storia di un'educazione sentimentale, come il viaggio iniziatico di un artista, ma forse il modo più giusto è proposto dallo stesso autore. Alla domanda "Che storia è quella narrata in Shosha?" Singer rispose: "Una storia d'amore".

Softcover. Etat : Fine. "Shosha "is a hauntingly lyrical love story set in Jewish Warsaw on the eve of its annihilation. Aaron Greidinger, an aspiring Yiddish writer and the son of a distinguished Hasidic rabbi, struggles to be true to his art when faced with the chance at riches and a passport to America. But as he and the rest of the Writers' Club wait in horror for Nazi Germany to invade Poland, Aaron rediscovers Shosha, his childhood love-still living on Krochmalna Street, still mysteriously childlike herself-who has been waiting for him all these years.
