6/12/2023 0 Comments Leah lax book![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Fascinating and insightful on many levels, in particular about the Hasidim, this memoir questions the choices we make and what we teach our children even as it demonstrates the need to face, understand, and overcome obstacles to personhood. And when husband Levi discovers he has cancer, Lax must make decisions that are heart-wrenchingly brave and honest. Difficult, often joyous, but nearly all-consuming as the Hasidic life is, Lax begins to admit to herself that she is gay, and this calmly told, beautifully detailed memoir limns her movement from lonely child to young bride from dedicated wife, mother, and supplicant to soul-searcher and from denial to full acceptance of and delight in the real her. Almost before she knows what’s happening, she’s married to the older Levi, and though both are still college students, they must carefully follow Hasidic teachings in Austin, Texas, where Lax finds herself, though uncertain and lonely, easing “into role, like a rasp applied steadily to rough edges.” Many difficult though rewarding years later, at 36, with seven children, when Lax learns disturbing news from her non-Hasidic sister, she begins to write, in the process discovering hidden and troubling truths about her childhood, herself, and her feelings about being a Hasidic woman. In large part to escape her hoarder-artist mother and mentally ill father, Lax becomes a Hasidic Jew. -Leah Lax, Author of Uncovered: How I Left Hasidic Life and Finally Came Home. ![]() 6/11/2023 0 Comments Book the love songs of web dubois![]() ![]() Since childhood, Ailey Pearl Garfield has understood Du Bois’s words all too well. ![]() Du Bois, once wrote about the Problem of race in America, and what he called “Double Consciousness,” a sensitivity that every African American possesses in order to survive.

The Bonfire of the Vanities is the story of Sherman McCoy, a thirty-eight-year-old blue-blooded prince of Park Avenue who can barely afford his 2.6 million apartment and his 1,800 British suits. ![]() Savagely funny and compelling" Guardian "The air of New York crackles with an energy that causes the adrenalin to pump, until one has the illusion that this is where the whole of life is taking place. With his first attempt at fiction Wolfe has become the 'Dickens or Balzac of his age' the dandy journalist has become the towering genius" The Times "Wolfe's modern morality tale displays the sardonic humour and sharp appreciation of the grotesque familiar to admirers of his non fiction. No other novel has achieved such a precise place in the imagination of the reading classes. ![]() Evidence of that appears in the form of The Bonfire of the Vanities, a richly textured, exuberant tale. Killian is still on his high horse, Kramer stays married to. The New Journalism did not, however, quite wipe out the novel as literature’s main event.
