Title: I'd rather give it 0 stars
Review: I really cannot say one positive thing about The Yiddish Policemen's Union. I finished it, and I'm glad it's over. Plot, character, concept, multiple-genre (romance/mystery/crime) - all poorly executed. I was intrigued by the idea of a parallel/alternate history, but Chabon failed to create a world distinguishable from our own. the yiddish element was cheesy, distracting, and did not add meaning or mirth. Please save your time, and read something else.
