Kabbalah: A Love Story:
Novel Mystical Approach and Mystical Novel
Reviewed by Arthur L. Finkle
I have used this gem in a serous study group on mysticism. What is arcane, Kushner explains simply. Like the Zohar, its explanation involves becoming part of the cosmos; not looking from the outside.
Providing the ambience and involving the reader with the word, this novel provides the flavor of mysticism, which tastes delicious and will endure longer tan reading complicated texts.
This lyrical and sometimes poetic novel involves the reader in exploring the stories of love and of being a part of a larger being
Book Review: It's a little like reading Kabbalah itself
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book. The writing and the plot remind me of reading Kabbalah. I found the characters compelling and the story one that I could not put down. Even if you know nothing about Kabbalah read this book. You will learn that Kabbalah is more than Madonna and a red bracelet. It is a great romance that also makes you think about life, the universe and the interconnectedness of everything. What more could you want from a work of fiction!Book Review: I love this book
Summary: 5 Stars
I have read a few books of Rabbi Kushner that explore Jewish spirituality, and liked them very match. So I was intrigued by his exploration of a new, to my knowledge, genre. It started somewhat slowly, but quickly accelerated into a wonderful ride through the time and space, which only true mystic can create. I gained some new incites into kabbalistic concept of multiple universes, which escaped me for a long time. What a joy! Thank you Rabbi.Book Review: Kabbalah: A Love Story, Rabbi Kushner
Summary: 5 Stars
A truly remarkable, magical, mystery tour. I had to read it slowly, because I didn't want the book to end. Love is present in every sentence.
Thank you Rabbi Kushner, I will remember this book and read it again. I have already recommended it to my friends.
