Welcome

Welcome! In this blog I hope to explore two of my great interests: Hasidism and contemporary literature. I know the two are unrelated; in fact, Hasidic precepts disapprove of (may even be in direct contradiction to) contemporary secular literature.  Nevertheless, I have a passionate curiosity in both of these disciplines and will, however idiosyncratically, use this forum to indulge in them.
I invite all who share my enthusiasm to contribute comments, guest posts, book recommendations, photography and digital art. The book recommendations need not be long and detailed (though of course in-depth analyses would be fabulous) but can be a simple one-paragraph explanation of why you like/dislike a certain book or short story. I’d also be delighted to include articles on any topic in Hasidism, regardless of context or time period. Feel free to offer your insights and knowledge of Hasidism: historical or modern, formal or social, political or personal.
Thank you for visiting. I’m looking forward to spending many enlightening, entertaining hours here with you.
