A review by siobhanward
The Yiddish Policemen's Union by Michael Chabon

mysterious slow-paced

3.0

 I'll be honest - this book was hard to understand, and I have at least a small knowledge of Yiddish. Obviously I can't actually understand it, but I'm familiar with a lot of the words and phrases used in the book and even then there were parts that were way above my head.

The idea of the book was cool and there were some interesting plot elements, but I found it very hard to keep track of who was who and what was going on.
