"In his novel In Poylishe Velder (1921; In Polish Woods, 1938, the first volume of a trilogy) , Opatoshu described the decay of the Hasidic court of Kotzk during the post-Napoleonic generation and presented a rich panorama of Polish-Jewish interrelations up to the Revolt of 1863. Often reprinted, and translated into eight languages, it established Opatoshu 's fame internationally, though its sequel, 1863, made less of an impact; the last volume of the trilogy, Aleyn ( 'Alone ') was the first to be published (1919) .
