Tsilke the Wild

The free-spir-it-ed 19-year old Tsilke has spent her whole life in the for-est but what hap-pens when the out-side world with its strange rules and social oblig-a-tions begins to encroach on her syl-van idyll? Segalovit-sh's 1922 nov-el-which scan-dal-ized and enter-tained a gen-er-a-tion of Pol-ish-Jew-ish read-ers and left its mark on the pop-u-lar imag-i-na-tion-cement-ed his posi-tion as one of the most pop-u-lar Yid-dish writ-ers of the inter-war peri-od.
