The town of Motele, located close to Pinsk, was made famous by her other son, Haim Veizman, the first president of Israel (and the authors relative). It is described here through family members and friends, Jews and non-Jews, officials and professionals and more. The reader gets a very live and colorful portrait of a town that was like many but one of a kind. Chemerinsky (known in Yiddish as – R. Mardachileh) who had written all his works in Yiddish up to this book, surprised many with his fresh and rich language, a language filled with humor and wordplay. His writings in Hebrew radiate warmth, love and longing for his naïve childhood experiences which have passed but have not been forgotten. Chemerinsky does not write about his town with nostalgia or sentimentality but with a realistic and amused view. A view of someone who knows it is time to say goodbye to his past, a past that is worthy of becoming public.
