Whether set in the Catskills of New York, New England, Chicago, or LA; across oceans in Israel, Denmark, Mt. Everest, or Spain; in synagogues of youth, redwood forests, or family seder tables, its stories, like manna in the desert of our ancestors, sustain both body and soul. Curated by Diane Gottlieb, with a foreword by Erika Dreifus, \u003ci\u003eManna Songs\u003c\/i\u003e speaks to the rich diversity of Jewish lives. Through tallit and candlesticks, paintbrushes and prayer, these beautiful Jewish voices reach back across generations and pass traditions forward. Readers will find humor alongside sorrow, questions beside wonder, people lost, others found. \u003ci\u003eManna Songs\u003c\/i\u003e will delight, move, and inspire you. It will make your heart sing!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"If the essays in \u003ci\u003eManna Songs\u003c\/i\u003e were merely composed of rich and lyrical prose but did not represent a range of beautifully diverse Jewish voices, show me facets of my own tradition that weren't yet familiar to me, or provide a potent infusion of Jewish joy, Dayenu. But \u003ci\u003eManna Songs\u003c\/i\u003e does all this and much more.
