Michael Kent will review "The Blessing and the Curse" by Adam Kirsch
Poet and literary critic Adam Kirsch turns to the story of modern Jewish literature. From the vast emigration of Jews out of Eastern Europe to the Holocaust to the creation of Israel, the twentieth century transformed Jewish life. The same was true of Jewish writing which provided intimate access to new worlds of experience.
