Aprašymas

"In a creative blend of narrative, nostalgia and personal memoir, Rabbi Marc. D. Angel transports us back to the once-upon-a-time world of the Ladino-Sephardic community of his upbringing in Seattle, where Sephardic immigrants seamlessly blended religion, family traditions from the old country and modern-day values to create a joyous and uplifting Jewish way of life, one that could still serve as a model to emulate for our communities today."- Rabbi Daniel Bouskila, International Director of the Sephardic Educational Center"A beautiful family memoir and an unforgettable contribution to Sephardic-American letters... a window on the little-known world of Seattle's Sephardic Jews."- Jonathan D. Sarna, author of American Judaism: A History "Rabbi Angel's absorbing memoir of growing-up in Seattle, Washington, is an ode to the Ottoman-Sephardic culture and Judeo-Spanish language in which he was raised. Though it has gradually faded among subsequent generations, its beauty and lasting meaning, too valuable to lose..."- Rachel Amado Bortnick, Founder of Ladinokomunita "This memoir of growing up in a close-knit Sephardic immigrant community is poignant and a pleasure to read. It's also sharp and provocative. It pushes us to figure out how, in our vexed, complicated world today, we can provide our children with a natural sense of belonging and joy.- Jane Mushabac (a.k.a. Shalach Manot), author of His Hundred Years, A Tale
