The Search Committee
Angel, Marc
Arrow $19.95 

A powerful story about two rabbinical scholars who seek to become head of a leading Lithuanian-type Yeshiva. The novel unfolds as a series of presentations to the Search Committee—by the candidates, their wives, colleagues, students, and philanthropic supporters. The struggle is not just between two men, but between two very different views of Judaism, Torah education, modernity, the role of women, and freedom of thought and expression.
