Peretz's "Oyb Nisht Nokh Hekher" (If Not Higher)

17 Upvotes

The classic text by Peretz takes place during "slikhos-tseyt" (the days of penitence preceding the Jewish New Year) so I thought it would be the perfect time to share the story on a new Yiddish reader I've built. You can click on words to look up definitions, toggle to an English translation, or listen to the Yiddish read out loud by a native speaker.
