ln the novel "Bociany" Chava Rosenfarb brings a vanished world to vibrant, compelling life.
The author follows the destinies of characters from the Polish town of Bociany as they grow up, grow old, and leave the shtetl for the city.
Her primary characters are the scribe's widow Hindele, her son Yacov, the chalk vendor Yossele Abedale, and his daughter Binele.
Jewish relations with neighboring Catholics are generally civil, if complicated.
Despite living next door to a convent, Hindele finds the nuns' behavior implacably alien.
Rosenfarb establishes an indelible sense of place, evoking its charm and the shtetl residents' ease with the natural world.
Yet even in isolated Bociany, new ideas - socialism, Zionism, Polish nationalism, secularism - begin to challenge the shtetl's traditional agrarian and mercantile economy.
