Sample Book Insights:
#1 My father, Rabbi Shaul Kaplan, was a short, stiff-shouldered man with flat, sad eyes and a high forehead that faded into a bald pate. He had called his own father Dad, but as a child I was not critical enough to reflect on the discrepancy between the little I knew of his history and his insistence that their way of life had always been as it was.
#2 I was a child in the synagogue on Passover, when I heard that the butcher, a man as tall as a door, had yelled at my father in the synagogue, angry about some ruling my father had made. Because he got to hang out with the men, Elisha always overheard the best gossip.
#3 I loved watching movies, and I especially loved watching Davie on-screen. One night, my parents brought me a Davie movie, and I fell in love with him.
