Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master storyteller Steve Sanfield has listened with fond ear to the centuries-old echoes of a town 3where kindness and sweetness and silliness2 have dwelt side by side from the beginning. In the town of Chelm, 7 and 7 are 11. It1s a matter of local logic, and you can find the proof of it on page 69. In the town of Chelm, Berish the Shammes, so his feet shouldn1t mar the beauty of any newly fallen snow while alerting merchants to the coming Sabbath, stands on a table and is carried aloft by 4 other Chelmites. If you think this sounds foolish, please turn to page 53. If you like riddles, pages 74 and 75 present some of Chelm1s best. If you enjoy sights, Russian artist Mikhail Magaril1s merry and touching view of Chelm will enlighten you.
