Synopsis

Gershon Loran, a quiet rabinical student, is troubled by the dark reality around him. He sees hope in the study of Kabbalah, the Jewish bok of mysticism and visions, truth and light.

When I bought this book I asked the young lady who sold it to me if she could pronounce Rabbi Potok's first name. She could, and did, and told me that it was a good book. She was right.(Chaim starts out like chutzpah and rhymes with lime.)Potok also wrote "The Chosen," "The Promise," "In the Beginning," and "My Name is Asher Levm" among others. He was trained and ordained as a rabbi and served as a chaplain with the U.S. Army in Korea."The Book of Lights" is a novel about an introverted, indecisive Jewish orphan boy who is raised by an aunt and uncle and educated in New York's parochial schools. He is a mediocre scholar, physically unprepossessing, and has an inferiority complex; the kind of hero it is easy to identify with. His name is Gershon Loran.Somehow, Gershon manages to accidentally stumble into seminary. (He thinks his friend is going, but the friend backs out at the last minute.) There he rooms with a boy whose father was a co-inventor of the atom bomb, and takes a course in Jewish mysticism from a professor not noted for his kindliness. Just what Gershon needed; he has no place to go but up, and he does.The roommates both wind up as chaplains in post-war Korea, and together they make a pilgrimage to Hiroshima, via Hongkong, Macao and Kyoto. Finally the guilt-ridden roommate is killed in an airplane crash.Potok's writing style is choppy and allusive, a little reminiscent of Ernest Hemingway. Often he gives only one side of the dialogue, leaving the other side to the reader's imagination. There is no suspense in "The Book of Lights," and very little action. The story is about self-discovery and the hero's religious feelings. It sounds deadly, and probably it will be for many readers. Personally, I liked it and it held me to the end. It is true that it is slow moving and a great many of the Jewish references are unfamiliar and confusing, but Potok's characters live and breathe and elicit concern. And if one ends up on the last line of the last page wondering what the point of the whole thing was, well...Joseph Pierre, author of THE ROAD TO DAMASCUS: Our Journey Through Eternity
