Judaism
 The Chosen | Chaim Potok's incredible first novel explores the lives of two Jewish
boys, growing up in New York City. The subjects covered include the
boys' lives; their relationships to each other, to their fathers, and
to their teachers; the Holocaust; and much more. Ultimately, it is a
book about fathers and about faith. One of my favorite books, this is a
must-read. |
 My Name is Asher Lev | Chaim Potok, author of the bestselling novel The Chosen, has produced a masterpiece in My Name is Asher Lev. Asher Lev, a Ladover Hasid, is a devout Jew and a compulsively driven and phenomenally talented artist. The novel is the story of his early life and maturity as a person and as an artist. Absolutely phenomenal. |
 The Promise | The second novel in Chaim Potok's series, following the young Danny Saunders and Reuven Malter, brings the young men into adulthood, as each finds his own place in the world and Reuven is challenged to help a very special and gifted young man find his. Another must-read. |
