* NeedsMoreLove: This book, as well as most of Alterman’s later works, are generally ignored or overlooked in the public consciousness and in literary criticism, which tend to favour his early works, despite the complex narrative and literary merit of many of the unrelated poems in this novella-in-verse.

* HilariousInHindsight: The code of honour Misha Barkhasid mentions is reminiscent of that of present day Russian mob ''Vor v Zakone''. Even more hillarious, as Misha is stated to be from Odessa.

* TheWoobie: Several:
** Tsiva is one, being tormented because he couldn’t bring his sick parents with him to Israel (though it wasn’t his fault, the Israeli bureaucracy wouldn’t let them on the ship), his sons became delinquents, his daughter Miriam Helen ran off somewhere, and the beautiful chalice he’d inherited is nowhere to be found after he pawned it.
** Miriam Helen herself definitely counts. The poor girl ran off with a charming man, who happened to be Woldarski...
** The Witch, [[spoiler:though she’s somewhat of a JerkassWoobie]], being wooed by Siman-Tov solely for her money.
** Alterman himself, [[TheAlcoholic an alcoholic]] who’s openly mocked by his own characters.
