Book ID/图书代码: 14780008B23542
English Summary/英文概要: Whatever the situation, whatever the crisis, whatever the sorrow or joy, Jews have a few brilliant words for it. Health, marriage, sex, food, law, raising children, poverty, success, optimism, cynicism, winning, and losing—they’re all part of the Jewish experience, and there are proverbs for every one of them. The hundreds of examples in this book come from the Bible, the Talmud, and dozens of current sources. Where There’s Smoke, There’s Salmon is for all readers, Jewish or not, who seek entertainment, knowledge, and some great one-liners.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 无论什么情况、什么危机、多大的悲痛或快乐,犹太人都有一些精彩的词语来形容它。健康、婚姻、性、事物、法律、抚养孩子、贫穷、成功、乐观主义、愤世嫉俗、获胜还是失败,它们都是犹太人的经验,并且它们每一件事都有对应的谚语。本书中大量的例子来源于《圣经》、犹太法典和大量的现实来源。《哪里有烟,哪里就有蛙鱼》是写完所有寻找快乐、知识和俏皮话的读者的、犹太人或不包括。(LNL)
