The Yiddish Policemen's Union
In an alternate history where Jewish refugees settled in Sitka, Alaska, homicide detective Meyer Landsman finds himself chasing a murder across a city of displaced cultures, messianic schemes, and parallel authorities. Michael Chabon crafts a richly textured noir that is simultaneously a murder mystery, a meditation on exile, and a love letter to Yiddish life.
