Bunicii pe linie paterna ai laureatei din acest an a Premiului Nobel pentru literatura, Louise Glück, au fost evrei care au emigrat in 1900 in SUA din Valea lui Mihai (Ermihalyfalva), localitate din Bihor.
In Valea lui Mihai familia Glück precum si mai multi membri ai familiei Feldmann (strabunici ai autoarei) au luat parte activa in dezvoltarea unor ramuri industriale in zona, a comertului, activitatii bancare, de panificatie etc. Feldmann Tivadar era apicultorul celebru al localitatii. Unii barbati din familie au participat la Revolutia din 1848 respectiv in Primul Razboi Mondial. Erau cunoscuti si pentru gesturile de caritate fata de concetatenii crestini nevoiasi sau fata de soldatii care au luptat pe front , in special fata de cei care si-au pierdut vederea.
Familia Glück era si in conducerea Comunitatii evreiesti ortodoxe a localitatii si printre cei care au construit sinagoga.

Happiness
Poem by Louise Gluck
A man and a woman lie on a white bed.
It is morning. I think
Soon they will waken.
On the bedside table is a vase
of lilies; sunlight
pools in their throats.
I watch him turn to her
as though to speak her name
but silently, deep in her mouth–
At the window ledge,
once, twice,
a bird calls.
And then she stirs; her body
fills with his breath.
I open my eyes; you are watching me.
Almost over this room
the sun is gliding.
Look at your face, you say,
holding your own close to me
to make a mirror.
How calm you are. And the burning wheel
passes gently over us.
Beautiful….
