From: Hinde Ena Burstin [email protected] Date: August 15, 2012\ Subject: Lily Bes I am seeking biographical and bibliographic information on the Yiddish poet Lily Bes. She published several poems in “Frayhayt” in early 1929. She does not appear in any of the lexicons, and I have no further biographical information about her.I realise this makes it unlikely that I will be able to locate further information, but figure it is worth a try. You never know… I am also seeking circulation data and information about the readership of “Frayhayt” newspaper in 1928 and/or early 1929. I appreciate any information you can share. Thank you, Hinde Ena Burstin Melbourne, Australia ________________________________________________________ Please do not use the "reply" key when writing to Mendele.
