Pintele Part 3: A Very Brody Passover

Come with me to Bloomfield, Connecticut in 1980-something, to attend a Passover seder at the home of my great aunt and uncle, Sarah and Joe Brody. Then, stay for some after-dinner perspective on the Exodus story, and thoughts on the future.

Pintele Part 2: God and Other Gods

In the second chapter, we ask big questions: Is there a god? How can we discuss Jewish identity if nobody knows what it is? And what if Jesus had been a Borscht Belt comedian? Also, Red confronts Sarah about religion, and I recall being the only Jewish kid in school.

Pintele Part 1: Straight Outta Anatevka

We begin with the story of how I found my identity in great American musicals. Then we return to the Pale of Settlement, follow my great grandmother across the ocean, and begin to explore the relationship between Judaism and Jewishness, as represented by her two daughters.
