Two Jews = Three Shuls

Fiction

“This is a very smart book. It understands the language and culture of Jewish Long Island. It understands the inner workings—with all of the warts—of suburban synagogue life. Sides are drawn, irrationality hides behind faith, and petty jealousies abound. . . . The reader cares about the search for the perpetrator of a dark deed. Mysticism meets love, and love unleashes memories of pain and of horrendous loss.”
