Description

One of Israel's leading cultural figures, Dov Elbaum grew up in an ultra-Orthodox Jerusalem family and was a prodigy who seemed destined for greatness in the world of Talmud study.

But in his late teens, he abruptly broke away and set off into secular Israeli society. In this fascinating, courageous and compelling autobiography, Elbaum seeks to understand his decision and its consequences.

With the structure of Kabbalah as his road map, Elbaum journeys into the deep recesses of his self and his soul.

The ultimate goal of his journey is "the Void," a Kabbalistic space that precedes God's creation of the world and a psychological state that precedes our formation as individuals.

It is a space of great vulnerability but, also, of hope for rebirth and renewal. This is an intimate, honest, revealing work, both deeply personal and strikingly universal.

The Hebrew edition was a bestseller and sold over 50,000 copies.
