Defiance

Fiction

“This book is a powerful reminder that the arc of the moral universe bends towards justice only if brave people make the effort to bend it.”

The Torah Is an Open Book

World Religions

“Rabbi Caryn Broitman leads us to a Torah that isn't fixed and static, but alive with fresh meanings that may only be discovered in the light of our own experiences. This book is a persuasive argument that we each have not just a right, but a duty, to add to the work of interpretation that has engaged human minds for millennia.”

What We Remember Will Be Saved

“Stephanie Saldaña long ago proved herself a poetic and perceptive essayist. In this book, she also proves herself a courageous one. Following refugees into the darkest and most dangerous spaces of recent history, she documents journeys that are about much more than bare survival, at once wrenching and radiant.”
