The Family Moskat, novel by Isaac Bashevis Singer, first published in installments from 1945 to 1948 in the Yiddish-language daily newspaper Forverts and in book form (two volumes) as Di familye Mushkat in 1950. A one-volume English translation also was published in 1950.
Panoramic in sweep, the novel follows many characters and story lines in depicting Jewish life in Warsaw from 1911 to the late 1930s. Singer examines Ḥasidism, Orthodoxy, the rise of secularism, the breakdown of 19th-century traditions, assimilation, Marxism, and Zionism.
