The Seventh Beggar (Qty: 2)
Berkley Pub Group. 09/06/2005. Reprint. 380 pgs. Pearl Abraham, a writer raised as a Hasidic Jew, sets her second novel in a close-knit Hasidic enclave in upstate New York. Joel is a devout and scholarly but slightly rebellious teenager, and his goal is to create a golem out of the Hebrew alphabet (as the Jewish cabalists were said to do). When Joel is killed in a flood, his sister's son JakobJoel, becomes a kind of reincarnation of his uncle. As a student at MIT working in Artificial Intelligence, he writes a story about a robot he works with--a story in the tradition of the work of the cultish Jewish mystic Rabbi Nachman (1772-1810). The original Joel was obsessed with Nachman's unfinished story, "The Seven Beggars," and JakobJoel, in writing his own tale, creates a kind of coda to the life of the original Joel. Abraham's story delves deeply into the arcana of the Jewish tradition while she also explores family interactions among the Hasidim, illuminating the traditions and daily lives of a sect that seems exotic to many.
