""Adventures in Yiddishland" presents a familiar phenomenon in American-Jewish culture that has rarely been seen before. Shandler has a thorough command not only of contemporary Yiddish, but indeed in all its historical stages."--Naomi Seidman, author of "A Marriage Made in Heaven: The Sexual Politics of Hebrew and Yiddish" "A brilliant and original take on Yiddish in the post-World War II period. The book is beautifully conceived, thoroughly researched, logically structured, and clearly written. The writing is lively and the argument is clear and richly documented. While the focus is on post-World War II America, the book reaches back in time to virtually the entire history of Yiddish, but especially Yiddish in the modern period."--Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett, author of "Destination Culture: Tourism, Museums, and Heritage"
