Summary

With a Yiddish sensibility born of passion, an eye for detail, and a deadpan sense of humor, Moses captures singularly Jewish and wholly human characters as they live and breathe through their stories. Whether in Tel Aviv, suburban New Jersey, or the deep South, the characters who populate these stories grapple with God, their loved ones, fate, death, hope, Hitler, transcendence, and the 4000 year old history of Judaism. Lovely, tender, and hard to put down, these are short stories that leave you yearning for more. -- Amazon.
