When David, a skeptical professor of religion, is diagnosed with an unusual heart murmur, he becomes convinced that his heart is whispering divine secrets. But when David's frenzied attempts to ascend the Tree of Life lead to tragedy, his daughter Samara, who abruptly abandoned religion years earlier, believes it is up to her to finish what she started. As Samara's brother documents her increasingly strange behaviour, it falls to next-door neighbour and Holocaust survivor Chaim Glassman to shatter the silence that divides the members of the Meyer family. But can he break through to them in time? Long-held family secrets square off against faith and secularity in this remarkable debut novel, written with extraordinary heart and intelligence."-- $c Amazon. 650 0 $a Cabala $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Brothers and sisters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Jews $z MontreÌal $z MontreÌal $v Fiction. 651 0 $a MontreÌal (QueÌbec) $v Fiction. 941 $a 3 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110063625.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006091828.0 952 $l PRAX771 $d 20151202011550.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7F4D5C6298C211E5B5097593DAD10320 994 $a Z0 $b IODInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
