  In the swirl of Philadelphia at the end of Prohibition, Leyb meets Charles. They are at a former speakeasy called Cricket's, a bar that welcomes, as Charles says in his secondhand Yiddish, feygeles. Leyb is startled; fourteen years in amerike has taught him that his native tongue is not known beyond his people. And yet here is suave Charles, a Black man from the Seventh Ward, a fellow traveler of Red Emma's, speaking Jewish to a young man he will come to call Lion. 
   
   
   
  Lion is haunted by memories of life before, in Zatelsk, where everyone in his village, everyone except the ten non-Jews, a young poet named Gittl, and Leyb himself, was taken to the forest and killed. 
   
   
   
  And then, miraculously, Gittl is in Philadelphia, too, thanks to a poem she wrote and the intervention of a shadowy character known only as the Baroness of Philadelphia. And surrounding Gittl are malokhim, the spirits of her siblings. 
   
   
   
  Moriel Rothman-Zecher's Before All the World lays bare the impossibility of escaping trauma, the necessity of believing in a better way ahead, and the power that comes from our responsibility to the future. It asks the most essential question: What do you intend to do before all the world?

  Timeo Nada, editor for Penmen Books, has run into a little prick these days. His sexy and scientific houseman, Gage Need, is missing again. Weirdly, he can never find Gage on some days. Gage keeps talking about physics, molecular what-nots, and time-travel being possible. Unfortunately, Timeo is only drawn to his help's body, and how he's attracted to the man: the way Gage swims in the pool, sunbathes, and sleeps. Timeo cannot get the houseman out of his head and heart, but that doesn't matter now that Gage is missing.
  
  
  Soon Gage is found. Then rare and unique antiques strangely begin to pile up in the lakeside house, and a phantom blue mist covers the floor outside Gage's bedroom door. Timeo's feelings for Gage start to grow, and he becomes more interested in Gage, questioning the man's activities as a physicist.
  
  
  When Gage's quasi-boyfriend Chad turns up missing and Gage becomes the number one suspect regarding his disappearance, Timeo attempts to unravel the mystery and his high-strung emotions for Gage. He begins to wonder if Gage is really time-traveling, using the house as a portal? Is the phantom blue mist on the floor from outer space? And has Timeo fallen too hard and fast for Gage to admit he's totally in love with the guy?
