Shall I Say A Kiss

Lennard J Davis (Ed)

These letters describe the separate lives of two working-class, Jewish, British, Deaf people in the 1930's and during the tumultuous times just prior to World War II. With Eva in Britain and Morris in America, her letters record the life and opinions of a young, Deaf woman about to embark upon marriage and life in a new country. The challenges she faced, including racial barriers for both deaf and Jewish immigrants, and the prospect of uniting with a man she knew mostly through his letters alone, make for a compelling and emotional trip through her life. This engaging love story, which is also a social document, will be enjoyed by romantics and academics alike. Hardcover 144 pages Feb 1999
