AFTERWORD TO “WHAT STRANGE STARS AND SKIES”

The theme of “Lady Bountiful” appealed to Avram. Despite his own poverty, he was always sympathetic to the outstretched hand of a beggar on the street. Among his papers after he passed on, we found a manuscript titled “Everybody Has Somebody in Heaven,” which appears in the collection of Avram’s Jewish fantasies by the same title. It’s the tale of Tanta Sora Rifka, a saintly Jewish woman who distributes bagels to the poor. Clearly Tanta Sora and Dame Phillipa are related, gracious sisters of generosity wherever they may appear.
