Foreskin's Lament
Book (italiano):
<DIV><B>A <I>New York Times</I> Notable Book, and a “chaotic, laugh riot”(<I>San Francisco Chronicle</I>) of a memoir— first time in trade paperback.</B><BR><BR>Shalom Auslander was raised with a terrified respect for God. Even as he grew up and was estranged from his community, his religion and its traditions, he could not find the path to a life where he didn't struggle daily with the fear of God's formidable wrath. <I>Foreskin's Lament</I> reveals Auslander's “painfully, cripplingly, incurably, miserably religious” youth in a strict, socially isolated Orthodox community, and recounts his rebellion and efforts to make a new life apart from it. His combination of unrelenting humor and anger renders a rich and fascinating portrait of a man grappling with his faith and family.<BR><BR> </div>
