✦ About
Born in 1876, Pinchas is Joel's father. A peddler by trade, Pinchas had grown up in Lemberg, Galicia (then a part of Austria-Hungary, now in Ukraine), before immigrating to New York City's Lower East Side.
A laid-back man, Pinchas tries to avoid confrontation as much as possible. He is rather passive and would prefer not to get involved in politics or anything "too extreme."
He met his wife, Rachel, back in Warsaw. In her youth, she was a striking beauty, though proud and distant.

✦ Relationships
Rachel Farber | Pinchas' ambitious and judgmental wife. Their relationship began to disintegrate once they immigrated to America and the pressures of life started to get to them. Rachel does not like how Pinchas is non-confrontational and sets very few goals for himself. |
Joel Farber | Pinchas and Rachel's son, who was born in America. Growing up, Joel had a close relationship with Pinchas, but they grew apart as Joel underwent a series of transformations. |
Harvey Feingold | An old friend of the Farbers, Harvey is one of Pinchas' best (and only) friends. They like to reminisce about their old lives in Galicia and talk about the neighbourhood kids. |
✦ Trivia
● Pinchas has a lot of difficulty making friends and holding on to them, so at this stage of his life, he has very few friends left. |
● Pinchas is an easily satisfied person, so he doesn't see the need to set a lot of goals for himself or his family. |
● Pinchas laments how he and his son have drifted apart, but he realizes there is very little he can do. |
● Pinchas regrets being so passive at times, since his passivity (which is tied to his depression and anxiety) has led to a lot of tension in the household, and was probably one of the reasons Joel started to drift away from him. |
