Description:
On Seder night, when the Jews commemorate the exodus from Egypt, the youngest child always asks the father 'Why is this night different?' A beautiful question, which of course takes on a different meaning in Elisa Albert's acclaimed debut. Because what if you have doubts and have left the old world, but the traditions are so ingrained in your system that you start to miss the time when you were part of it? Elisa Albert writes with love, humor and a clear aversion to sacred cows about a quirky group of young, apostate Jews. They are looking for acceptance, a happier view of the past and a new future. This book will appeal to anyone who has ever been ambivalent about their faith, background or place in the world.
