Story5 out of 5 stars 334
After a decade as a political speechwriter - serving as head speechwriter for First Lady Michelle Obama, a senior speechwriter for President Barack Obama, and chief speechwriter for Hillary Clinton on her 2008 presidential campaign - Sarah Hurwitz decided to apply her skills as a communicator to writing a book...about Judaism. And no one is more surprised than she is. Sarah Hurwitz is on a mission to close this gap by sharing the profound insights she discovered on everything from Jewish holidays, ethics, and prayer to Jewish conceptions of God, death, and social justice.

Nothing short of brilliant

Having been raised in, and involved with Orthodox Judaism all my life, I am amazed at the insights and appreciation this book has given me, at times bringing me to tears. The perspectives Ms Hurwitz has brought to the table are simultaneously old as well as new, universal as well as personal. It is a love letter to Judaism, regardless of the stream one does or doesn't belong to.
