Joel's children will soon have to come to terms with this discovery themselves, but for the meantime, they are struggling with their own dilemmas and doubts. Rosa, a disillusioned revolutionary, has found herself drawn into the world of Orthodox Judaism and is now being pressed to make a commitment to that religion. Karla, a devoted social worker hoping to adopt a child with her husband, is falling in love with the owner of a newspaper stand outside her office. Ne'er-do-well Lenny is living at home, approaching another relapse into heroin addiction. In the course of battling their own demons-and one another-the Litvinoff clan is called upon to examine long-held articles of faith that have formed the basis of their lives together and their identities as individuals. In the end, all the family members will have to answer their own questions and decide what-if anything-they still believe in. The Believers explores big ideas with a light touch, delivering a tragic, comic family story as unsparing as it is filled with compassion. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Married people $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Older couples $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Parent and adult child $v Fiction. 651 0 $a New York (N.Y.) $v Fiction. 700 1 $a Martin, Andrea, $d 1947- $e narrator. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/11589219?utm_source=MARC $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/hpc_9780061805226_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20200806022101.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9AC0AFFED7AA11EAACEF483997128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
