WORDS AND MUSIC
Brooklyn U.S.A. Is A Screwy Place --
But Not Because of the Dodgers
Edited by RABBI SIDNEY J. JACOBS
GO FIGHT CITY HALL. By Ethel Rosenberg. Simon and Schuster. 256
pages. $2.50.
Ever since I returned to my native city after four years' residence in New
York as a student for the Rabbinate, I have found it a frustrating experience to
convince my fellow Chicagoans that ahenu b'nai Yisrael in the boroughs are as
fabulous and uninhibited as I have pictured them.
No one believed my story about the
burly hack-driver who bade farewell
to his fare, an elderly gentleman, at
Pennsylvania Sta-tion,
with t h
words, "Nu tatele,
hot mir a guten
Pesach!"
I received disbe-lieving
stares when
I related the story
of the tuxedoed
waiter in a semi-swanky
restaurant
on Broadway near
72nd street who looked down with de-rision
at the unfinished blintzes on my
wife's plate and commented, "Here
you come for blintzes? For blintzes
you go to. . . and gave us an ad-dress
on the lower East Side.
Cynical silence greeted my story of
the middle-aged woman waiting with
us for a bus on the corner of Hop-kinson
and Pitkin avenues in the
Brownsville section of Brooklyn who,
inspired by the J.N.F. pins my wife
and I were wearing, proceeded to tell
us her life story. It turned out that she
had lived for many years on Drake
avenue near Douglas boulevard on Chi-cago's
West Side, and she claimed that
the first Labor Zionist meeting in the
city had been held in her parlor, with
Nachman Syrkin, late theoretician of
the movement, as the speaker. She was
on her way to a Pioneer Women Or-ganization
banquet at a Manhattan
hotel, and left us with the responsi-bility
of relaying greetings to "Ay-kele"
(the late Albert K. Epstein) and
Dr. Max Dolnick. "Tell them," she
called Out as we parted, "that Toybe
sends her regards!"
It Did Happen
Now I have evidence that all this
and more could have happened and
did happen. Go Fight City Hall is
truly a tender and uproarious story
which gives definite proof that the
Dodgers aren't the only people in
Brooklyn.
Meet octogenarian Uncle Julius Pas-ternak,
who can make himself just as
comfortable on a subway seat (B-M-T-,
that is) as most of us can in a Pullman
drawing room.
Get acquainted with Aunt Esther,
who came to visit the Pasterngks one
afternoon, and stayed three days with-out
once taking off her galoshes. ("Af-ter
lunch I'm going home, so might as
well leave them on already. In the
winter time is always something.")
And shake hands with Howie and
Hannah, a pair of young lovers who
would probably have gotten along
better if Hannah's mother hadn't been
so anxious to arrange a wedding for
her daughter. ("Hannah tells me you
are a student, Howie. You have a long
time to go to school yet?")
Ethel Rosenberg, who prefaced her
first novel with anticipatory sketches in
the "From fhe American Scene" in
Commentary magazine, has a genuine
love for her characters, and it is this
sympathy which takes this work away
from the semi-vulgarizations of Milt
Gross's Nize Baby stories and lifts it
to the level of folk-lore.
Her choice of language is a case in
point. She does not communicate mood
through dialect, but rather through ac-eurate
representation of the peculiar
Anglo-Yiddish sentence construction
typical of the European-born Jew of
the older generation.
Example:-
"'Oh, the paintner,' Mr. Pasternak
says. 'Good morning,' he adds civilly.
The little man pushes past without
speaking, slams the ladder down on
the bedroom floor, walks back to the
front door, and then turns to Mr.
Pasternak.
'Good Morning?'
"'Who says "good morning" to a
paintner? To a paintner you say only
"Drop dead."' He goes Out the door,
closes it, open it, and says calmly, 'I'll
be right back.'
Or later, when Mrs. Pasternak com-plains
to the ogre-like landlord, Mr.
Kugel, that the paintner refuses to
paint the bedroom blue ("What kind
of a messa-meshinah color is blue?"),
Kuigel answers, "He is a fine man. A
father from children."
Yet again, when Mr. Pasternak re-ceives
a letter from Kansas City,
Missouri ("I feel in my heart it is
bad news," his wife comments looking
at the envelope. "Why should anybody
write to us from Kansas City?"), he
tells his mate: "Frieda, you know from
who is this letter? My father's cousin
on the mother's side - must be a very
old man now. . . Imagine. When my
Tante Clara-us to long years-was
married, in Yassy was the wedding, I
remember, so I was maybe, I wouldn't
say more, I wouldn't say less, maybe
nine years old."
So find a comfortable place to sit,
get something from the icebox to nash
on, and settle down with Brooklyn's
good neighbors, to whom the phrase,
"Go fight city hall!" means, "Stop
knocking your head against a stone
wall. You can't win."
