A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

The attacks of September 11 and the continuing Israeli – Palestinian conflict made harsh demands on Jewish ideals and thoughts in 2001. In his annual collection, Lerner (editor, Tikkun magazine) has gathered fiction, nonfiction, and poetry that covers many aspects of Jewish concern and interest. The volume is divided into sections on identity, spirit, culture, healing, Israel, and Jewish response to 9/11. Among the well–known authors included are Amos Oz, Abraham B. Yehoshua, Adrienne Rich, Chaim Potok, and Grace Schulman. Some highlights are the fast –paced and funny stories of Wendy Wasserstein and Binnie Kirschenbaum and the political statements of Sylvia Barack Fishman and Uri Averny. Also, Robert S. Gottlieb′s article on his disabled child is wonderfully insightful. A committed religious life and social activism are stressed in many of the selections, and both sides of issues are fairly presented. Recommended for literary and Jewish studies collections. ––Gene Shaw, NYPL. (Library Journal, July 2002)
