Previously, Rob (Philip M. Gillen II ’13) returned from Kenya to find that his ex-girlfriend Nikki (Rebecca E. Feinberg ’13) had moved on and started dating a dude by the name of Wes Dooley (Cameron M. Johnstone ’12), who happened to be the star of the popular movie  “Dartek” (directed by "Transformers" director Michael Bay, of course).  The only people in the world of the Ivory Tower who don’t seem entirely captivated by Dooley’s charm...

Maupassant (Philip Y. Gingerich ’13), installed among the audience members, occasionally cheers on, shouts at, and has conversations with those onstage, while the theater manager, as Leah sobs over the body of her dead husband, exclaims exasperatedly, “Shut up!

...rare today that a novel grapples with the several thousand years of Jewish history and heritage that preceded America, rather than only addressing the issues surrounding modern Jewish life. Mainstream Jewish authors such as Philip Roth or Jonathan Safran Foer are writing about Jews, but not so much about Judaism. Less common is the Chaim Potok or the Milton Steinberg who attempts to bring the vast Jewish past into dialogue with the Jewish present...
