Idle Chatter. One of the Stories is a publication devoted to the Lódz Yiddish avant-garde. It is a translation of Moyshe Broderzon's poetic text Siches chulin. Aine fun di geshichten, published in Moscow in 1917 by Chawar Publishing House. This adaptation of the folk tale Maase shel Jerushalmi [The Tale of the Jerusalemite] was published with illustrations by Eliezer (El) Lissitzky, whom Broderzon met during his stay in Moscow in the years 1914-1918. In addition to friendship, both authors were united by a fascination with Jewish tradition and folklore, as well as an awareness of the significance of the Yiddish language for shaping national identity in the diaspora. The design of the first, limited edition of Siches chulin with its unusual form - a scroll with text and hand-colored lithographs enclosed in a wooden box - clearly referred to the old, illuminated scrolls of the Book of Esther, and the illustrations themselves corresponded stylistically with the works of Jewish folk art.
