nogoodnik started reading Ks̀ovim fun Ḥayim Ḳrul by Chaim Krul (Steven Spielberg digital Yiddish library -- no. 03008)
In Anna Elena Torres' Horizons Blossom, Borders Vanish, she off-hand mentions Chaim Krull, an disabled anarchist writer and literary critic who wrote reviews with a pen in his mouth once he lost use of his hands - as it turns out, there is a compilation of his writing, including I think all of his larger works! I'm slowly working my way through an amateur translation of the introductory biography given by his longtime best friend. I'm especially interested in In Toytn-Hoyz [In the dead-house], a short novel where Krull depicts life in the hospital for the chronically ill where he spent his final years.
