Weinstock Among the Dying

<p><em>Weinstock Among the Dying </em>is a tragi-comic study of one man's attempt to recover from the griefs of his childhood and to enter into a life-giving adulthood of fatherhood and mature love. In it Michael Blumenthal creates a moving portrait of the human struggle for psychological growth as well as a witty satire of life at the top of the academic world.<strong> The book won the 1994 Harold U. Ribalow Prize for Best Work of Jewish Fiction. Judges were Elie Wiesel Thomas Keneally and Merrill Joan Gerber.</strong></p>
