By learning the power of twice-told tales, three restless, rebellious Jews—-Rebbe Nahman of Braslav, I. L. Peretz, and I.B. Singer—-were reborn as Yiddish storytellers. By returning to fantasy and the live, spoken language of the people, they turned storytelling into an autonomous, highly creative and potentially explosive activity.
