Chaim Potok’s collected shorter works span fiction and drama. Zebra and Other Stories (1998) gathers tales written for a younger audience, while Old Men at Midnight (2001) presents three linked novellas about characters whose lives have been shaped by the violence of the twentieth century. Both collections carry the same careful attention to moral questions that defines Potok’s novels.
The Collected Plays of Chaim Potok, published posthumously in 2018, brings together his dramatic work for the first time. Potok, who died in 2002, wrote plays throughout his career alongside his fiction and non-fiction, and this volume preserves that lesser-known side of his output.
