Девять миль

Пятница, когда раввин заспался

В детективной истории, "Пятница, когда раввин заспался", молодой раввин Дэвид Смолл решает спорные вопросы необычным способом — прибегая к помощи Талмуда. Поначалу люди с недоверием относятся к такому методу, но вскоре убеждаются в его действенности.

The nine-mile walk

About the Author Born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1908, Harry Kemelman was the creator of perhaps one of the most famous religious sleuths: Rabbi David Small. His writing career began with short stories for Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine featuring New England college professor Nicky Welt, the first of which, "The Nine Mile Walk," is considered to be a classic (the Welt stories were later grouped into a collection with the same title). The Rabbi Small series began in 1964, with Friday the Rabbi Slept Late. It went on to become a bestseller, and won Kemelman an Edgar for "Best First Novel" in 1965. Kemelman died in 1996.
