"Every person is a world champion in something..."
By Friederike Knabe
...the father told his young son,"but [...] most of us will never discover what we are really good at." Etgar Keret has taken his father's words very much to heart: he has become an award winning story teller, a film producer and, first of all, an astute and candid observer of life in his country, Israel.
FOUR STORIES is much more than the title suggests. Two introductions to his person (by Ken Frieden and George Saunders) are helpful and add to our understanding of Keret, the author and his work and thinking. The four stories selected for this slim volume, expand on the topic of his lecture, especially how exposure to the experiences of the generation of Holocaust survivors can impact the life of the young, the second generation, in different ways. Two of them stand out for me in particular. In the first, Keret describes a visit to a Holocaust Memorial by a boys' class, in the second he illustrates schoolboys' behaviour in competition. In both, the relationship to an older person, a survivor, is the moral focus of the story.
The centre piece of this booklet is Keret's B.G. Rudolph Lecture in Judaic Studies, presented in 2009 and edited for this compilation. It is more an informal talk than a lecture in the academic sense and its title is deceptively simple: Second Generation. In it, Keret reflects on his personal perspective on being a second generation Holocaust survivor. He summarizes his parents' ordeal and their way of coping with it. Like in his short story writings, he is open, direct, informal and candid here. He raises his concerns about the trends in the nineteen-nineties of publishers and film makers to search out any kind of second generation survivor story. His personal experiences, he explains, have, in some ways, set him apart from others of his generation. "When they wanted to "classify me under this second-generation token", he felt," that it was some sort of reduction of my family and of my relationship with my parents..." In contrast to many survivor families where the past is solidly covered with silence, his parents and "never denied the horrifying experience they had gone through, but there was something in the way they told it." It was in this context that his father spoke about every person being a world champion: he told his son what made him one and how it helped him survive...
Reading this booklet will encourage any reader to pick up one or the other collection of Etgar Keret's short stories. I had the privilege to hear him speak recently, capturing the audience with stories and candid answers to the interviewer's questions. His reading of the title story from his upcoming collection in English, with the current draft title "Then there was a knock at the door", makes me impatient to read more. [Friederike Knabe]

Another great work by Keret.
By Levi H. Noir
The lecture is an important contribution to dealing with historical trauma. Keret's personal perspective gives a unique insight into it-- both as a writer and as a son of Holocaust survivors. The short stories are simply Keret and gain additional depth in the context of the lecture.

Not all new material
By tigermama
I love Etgar Keret, and the introduction/presentation included at the beginning of the book was great. However, I had read 3 of the 4 stories in his other collections, which was disappointing. I guess I should have checked exactly what was included.
