Know about the book -

The One-Handed Pianist and Other Stories is written by Ilan Stavans and published by Northwestern University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0810124602 (ISBN 10) and 9780810124608 (ISBN 13).

The One-Handed Pianist was published to acclaim in the early 1990’s, with the two-part Spanish edition winning the Latino Literature Prize in 1989 and the Gamma Literature Prize in 1992. Its tales look at what it means to be Jewish in the Hispanic world—a world in which spirituality is often exercised outside the realm of orthodoxy. Stavans constructs fables that raise questions about ethnicity and community; even Stavans’ person raises questions about ethnicity and community: what does it mean that a Jew of Eastern European lineage can call himself Latino and speak for that group?
