How? By speaking Yiddish, employing terms that convey an attitude -- part plucky self-assertion, part ironic fatalism. When Dick schmoozes, when Jane kvetches, when their children fress noodles at a Chinese restaurant, the clash of cultures produces genuine hilarity.","brand":"Little Brown and Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48848011591885,"sku":"9780316159722","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/1529\/9533\/files\/imageloader_0c1b89c8-a1ec-4d28-b37b-17e8d6935a2a.jpg?v=1793394375","url":"https:\/\/booksatmidnight.com\/products\/yiddish-with-dick-and-jane","provider":"Books At Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
