Children of the Ghetto by Israel Zangwill was published in 1892. It
documents the lives of immigrant Jews who lived and worked in the
Yiddish-speaking streets and densely packed alleys emptying into
London's Petticoat Lane, the East End bazaar that was both
marketplace and communal watering hole. Zangwill's portrayal of the
uncertain situation of 'his people, ' which all too often had been
painted in dreadfully sombre tones by earnest social reformers and
drum-beating evangelists, is insightfully told with affectionate
honesty and wryness of humour. Introduction by social historian and
Victorian Series editor, Bob Biderman.
