Please join us for a lively conversation between Rabbi Katz and author Shalom Auslander about his relentlessly funny, subversively heartfelt, and fearlessly provocative memoir Feh. This Jewish Book Award Finalist follows Auslander’s midlife journey to rewrite the biblical story he’d been raised on—a journey that involves Phillip Seymour Hoffman, a Pulitzer-winning poet, Job, Arthur Schopenhauer, GHB, Wolf Blitzer, Yuval Noah Harari, and a pastor named Steve in a now-defunct church in Los Angeles.
Called a “virtuoso humorist, and a brave one” by the New York Times Book Review and “one of America’s sharpest comic provocateurs” by the Jewish Chronicle, Shalom Auslander grew up in a strict Orthodox Jewish neighborhood in Monsey, New York. He is an award-winning and bestselling novelist, memoirist, and essayist whose work has been published in Esquire, The New York Times Magazine, Tablet, and The New Yorker. His stories have aired on NPR's his American Lifeand he is the creator of Showtime's Happyish.
