Центр еврейской истории в Нью-Йорке публикует раритетные книги на иврите. «Нож» не смог пройти мимо одного из экземпляров — детской сказки «Свадьба в Лесу», изданной в 1930 году в Берлине.

Герои здесь словно герои предвосхищают события фильма «Экстаз» Гаспара Ноэ: выпивают подозрительной жидкости и отправляются в психоделический пляс, но только вокруг грибов и цветков.
Хорошо, что Центр дал английский перевод.
