About This Item
Numbers 1-3. Each is quarto 26x17 cm., wrappers, 80, 80, 83 pp. No. 1 released in 3000 copies, No. 3 notes 2000. Cover design by Mark Chagall, who also provided a statement in No. 1. A literary-artistic journal, Shtrom was an organ of the Kultur-Lige which moved from Kyiv to Moscow in 1921. While not an official state publication, it is the first Yiddish serial to appear in the USSR. Poetry and prose by Peretz Markish, der Nister (Pinchas Kahanowitz), David Hofshtein, Naum Auslander (Nokhem Oyslender), David Bergelson, Itsik Kipnis, N. Daniel, and Shmuel Nisn-Gordiner, inter alia. Shtrom aspired to be international in scope, drawing on Yiddish writers worldwide, but over time it published writers of the Soviet Union. The last 3 numbers came under Party control, and it failed to maintain sufficient financial support to continue. OCLC traces only a holding in microfiche (Harvard), but MOMA has 1-4.
