Supposedly written by a denizen of the early 20th Century lower east side New York City who recorded the verbatim conversations of his newly-arrived Eastern European neighbours as heard through the thin walls of his tenement, Nize Baby is a hilarious read. From the mother bribing her baby to eat his 'Shradded Whitt' breakfast by telling him 'De Ferry Tale From Keek Midas', to Isodore's father disciplining his son (So, Isadore, (WHACK!) again yoo vere stillink epples from de paddler, (WHACK!) alreddy? A tiff yool be, hah? (WHACK!) to the women gossiping about Freud and tsycle-hennellisis, this book is an amusing tribute to a neighbourhood of foreigners trying to come to grips with an incomprehensible new land. Everyone whose foreign ancestors, like mine, spoke funny English will recognise this light-hearted record of their forefathers' early struggles,and will especially enjoy reading Nize Baby, but those fortunate people for whom this fiendishly difficult language is their natural heritage will also be amused.
