Abstract

-Had Gadya/The Only Kid: Facsimile of El Lissitsky's Edition of 1919, edited by Arnold J. Band, contains just what the title promises: the folksong" Had Gadya," which is traditionally sung at Ashkenazic seders, and the illustrated book that the Russian avant-garde artist El Lissitsky (1890--1941) made of it in 1919. Although the song is usually a hit with children, the book--packaged elegantly, accompanied by annotated thumbnail illustrations and a scholarly yet clear introduction about the Jewish cultural renaissance in Russia between 1912 and the early 1920s and its impact on Lissitsky--will probably be of most interest to admirers of Lissitsky's more mature work, who will be startled by the contrast in theme and style.

Abstract

The article discusses issues concerning the fabrication of some parts of the book A Million Little Pieces by James Frey. It discusses that the Frey first presented the book as fiction but was published as nonfiction. This paper argues that another truism of publishing is that a good memoir must share many of the traits of a novel. It has to have a narrative and development and denouement.
