At the top of the hill, Rav Kirshner is nearing the end of his life. As he struggles to decide which of his sons should succeed himthe pious but stolid Isaiah or the brilliant but rebellious Jeremyhis followers wrestle with their future and their past.With this community, Allegra Goodman weaves magic.
