Reviews
". . . There is more help for the troubled in these stories than in many books programmed for self-help." -- Christian Century, "'Friendship' and 'concern' are the key motifs of this book. For Wiesel, Hasidism is not a theology or a philosophy. It is not an abstract system of ideas or a conception of the Deity. It is a friendship and a concern for people and for God. Hasidism is the opposite of solitude. It is a sense of begin bound up together with all other human beings in their joy and in their distress and of being bound up with God in his joy and in his distress." -- Commonweal, "This delightful work, in the by now well-known manner of Elie Wiesel, continues his recounting of Hasidic tales begun in Souls on Fire (1972). . . .The present volume recounts tales of four great Hasidic masters: R. Pinchas of Koretz, R. Baruch of Medzebozh, R. Yaacov Yitzchak Horowitz-the Holy Seer of Lublin-and R. Naphtali of Ropshitz." -- Choice, "Wiesel brings a journalist's optimism to his studies of the Hasidic saints who set Eastern European Jewry alight in the 18th century with the faith that brought it through the last, worst centuries of persecution." -- The Boston Globe, "Another beautifully written and prepared word by one of the fine writers of our time." -- Jewish Post and Opinion, "As always, Wiesel's characters are infused with the breath of life; these extraordinary men are fully human, whether reeling in spiritual ecstasy or pondering their existential melancholy, the loneliness that accompanies vision and greatness. . . . These tales make inspiring and fascinating reading for all." -- Library Journal

    The item got lost in the mail, which was my fault, because I provided an old UPS store addy. The store informed me that they returned it, but the seller never got it. His communication on this manner, however, was excellent. Would definitely by from him again!

    I received my DVDs in the mail today, in fine shape and earlier than expected thanks to super fine packaging and swift shipment. They were exactly as described in both text and photos. Thanks for a very smooth transaction.
