About the book: Vintage movie tie-in paperback...
What a brilliant film that will haunt me for years. The story centers around Tevye, a poor Jewish milkman in Ukraine during the time of the Czars. He is a man with five daughters who loves his traditions but these are changing times. His daughters choose their own husband's much to his dismay but he also wishes his daughters happiness. The Jews have such a rich heritage. It's a shame that that they have been persecuted for so many years.

Synopsis
Joseph Stein (1912-2010) was an playwright best known for such musicals as Fiddler on the Roof and Zorba . Born to Jewish immigrants, Stein grew up in the Bronx. He began his career as a psychiatric social worker, while writing comedy on the side. A chance encounter with Zero Mostel led him to writing for radio personalities, including Hildegarde and Jackie Gleason. He later worked in TV when he joined the writing team of "Your Show of Shows," which included Woody Allen, Mel Brooks, and Carl Reiner. He was honored with the Oscar Hammerstein Award for Lifetime Achievement in Musical Theater, and in 2008 was inducted into the Theater Hall of Fame.
