You are lucky if you can read the original. Set 100 years ago, these tales tell of the lives of the people of Odessa, a big Ukrainian city and a port, run by gangsters, which are, interestingly, Jewish gangsters. So we get characters such as Lyubka the Cossack, who ignores her newborn baby in order to run her business empire; and, the greatest of all, Benya Krik, the King.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 94\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.19 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 29, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48632141775097,"sku":"9781544253305","price":10.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/KBoq0ChZge9781544253305.webp?v=1783134968","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/odessa-stories-illustrations-by-vladimir-ryklin-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
