520    Holocaust survivor Leib Goldkorn is about to celebrate his
       104th birthday. He is also about to stick his head in his 
       oven and turn on the gas. A series of events at this 
       juncture take him back to his native Iglau, Moravia 
       (present-day Czech Republic); provide him with a new 
       paternity; give him a new career; fill his pockets; and 
       furnish him with a family. He returns to New York with all
       of the above. However, all is not as it seems. His 
       newfound family and work, a new love interest, and the 
       crazy adventures that ensue are a bit over-the-top for a 
       mere mortal. Epstein (King of the Jews) gives this bawdy 
       centenarian a fittingly bizarre send-off.
