The Poetry of Abraham Joshua Heschel

Morton Leifman Long before Abraham Joshua Heschel became the spiritually audacious writer who produced Man Is Not Alone, God in Search of Man and classic works on the Sabbath and Chasidism, he was a young, lonely man in Berlin, writing Yiddish odes to the streets and parks. Delve into Heschel’s early poems with Morton Leifman, who recently translated the works into English for the first time. Leifman’s bilingual The Ineffable Name of God: Man contains most of the artistic and theological motifs that would appear in Heschel’s mature work.
