Description
‘Jewish luck’ revolves around Menakhem Mendl (one of Sholem Aleichem’s characters), a daydreaming entrepreneur who specializes in doomed strike-it-rich schemes. Despite Jewish oppression in Tsarist Russia, Mendl continues to pursue his dreams and his continued persistence transforms him from schlemiel to hero.
