Song of the Whitewasher

Song of the Whitewasheraf Lev Hakak
Bag om Song of the Whitewasher

This eloquent collection of short stories and Jewish proverbs, folktales and essays reminds readers that a single life is fleeting and small, and yet each individual is connected to something larger and more constant than themselves. With simplicity and clarity, these stories ¿ many of them centuries old ¿ manage to bridge the distance between past and present, between individual virtues and the strength of a community. Like any good book, Hakak¿s does not provide answers. Instead, it asks the right questions ¿ the same questions our ancestors asked themselves, and the ones our children¿s children will ask themselves, too. (Alizah Salario)
