Summary: A prayer book for the winter night - armchair congregant
Review: An excellent collection and variety of essays and poems. Best among them for me are Jonathan Rosen's "The Talmud and the Internet" from Parabola; Phil Levine's "After Leviticus" from Image; (Roshi) Bernie Glassman's two-page "My Wife Died Unexpectedly Last March" from Tikkun; Pico Iyer on why we travel; Max Apple's "Max and Mottele" from Pakn Treger; and Eliezer Shore's "A Single Glance" from Bas Ayin.
