My question about Moyshe Altman seems to have raised interest in this
list... so let me contribute with an addition by referencing you to this
book that was published very recently and includes extensive quotes and
analysis of Alman's texts... in english.

*Music from a Speeding Train* by Harriet Murav
http://www.amazon.com/Harriet-Murav/e/B001HPIG76/ref=3Dntt_athr_dp_pel_pop_1

A short review of the book:

*Music from a Speeding Train* explores the uniquely Jewish space created by
Jewish authors working within the limitations of the Soviet cultural
system. It situates Russian- and Yiddish- language authors in the same
literary universe=E2=80=94one in which modernism, revolution, socialist rea=
lism,
violence, and catastrophe join traditional Jewish texts to provide the
framework for literary creativity. These writers represented, attacked,
reformed, and mourned Jewish life in the pre-revolutionary shtetl as they
created new forms of Jewish culture.

The book emphasizes the Soviet Jewish response to World War II and the Nazi
destruction of the Jews, disputing the claim that Jews in Soviet Russia did
not and could not react to the killings of Jews. It reveals a largely
unknown body of Jewish literature beginning as early as 1942 that responds
to the mass killings. By exploring works through the early twenty-first
century, the book reveals a complex, emotionally rich, and intensely
vibrant Soviet Jewish culture that persisted beyond Stalinist oppression.
