A poignant coming-of-age story set in a vanished world of Jewish life in Tsarist Russia.
In Ida Maze's Dineh, a young girl navigates the complexities of family, faith, and community in the face of social injustice and cultural change. Growing up in a small village in White Russia, Dineh yearns for knowledge and understanding, but her path is fraught with challenges and limitations.
As anti-Semitism tightens its grip and emigration beckons, Dineh's world is transformed. This beautifully translated autobiographical novel offers a glimpse into a lost world, exploring themes of identity, loss, and the enduring power of the human spirit. Perfect for readers of historical fiction and Jewish literature.

Born Hayeh Zukofsky in 1893 in the village of Ugli, White Russia (now Belarus), Ida Maze was an important figure in the world of Yiddish letters. After emigrating from White Russia, she lived briefly in New York City and then settled in Montreal. Maze’ s generosity was the stuff of legend. She helped refugee writers navigate the Canadian immigration system, edited the books of other poets, and advocated for writers in many ways. The doors of her home were always open, and many Yiddish writers gathered there. Ida Maze died in Montreal in 1962.

Hardback. Zustand: New. Available in English translation for the first time, Dineh, posthumously published, is an autobiographical Yiddish-language novel by Ida Maze (1893-1962). Dineh is a pastorale laced with beauty and sorrow and a bildungsroman told from the point of view of a young girl. Living in what is now Belarus, Maze's eponymous heroine is fuelled by her hunger for learning, connection to family and community, and love of the natural world.Maze interweaves Dineh's story with portraits of others, chiefly women and girls, in her community. We meet the mysterious seamstress Shprintse; Beyle, who leaves home to work as a maidservant in Minsk; and Hinde, who falls in love with a young nobleman, among numerous unforgettable others. Maze unflinchingly examines the lives of women, writing about class stratification, thwarted romance, violence (domestic, state-instigated, and otherwise), and the perils of childbirth. She was also interested in the lives of non-Jews and in relations between Jews and non-Jews.Propelling the novel forward are the tightening noose of Tsarist anti-Semitism, the increasing restrictions on Jewish economic survival, and the rising tide of revolutionary movements. Taken as a whole, Dineh provides a haunting portrait of rural, village, and small-town life in White Russia in the last decade of the nineteenth and early years of the twentieth centuries.
