Full Description
From the centrality of family to the Dead Sea Scrolls to Chasidic feminism, Lilies features twenty-one compelling essays born of a collision between Judaism and modernity and elegant expression.
Referencing Buber, Bloom, and Kafka the essays contrast the
public face of Jewish culture and its soul. Other compositions find
transcendence in the details of Jewish law. In the act of exposing the
confluence of a Hippie-dom, post-modernism, and halakhic Judaism, Lilies provides intellectual musings on wide-ranging subjects with surprising personal relevance and poignancy.
Editor: Baila Olidort
