NEW ON THE SRP SHELF
"Every year that I have the privilege of reading new stories by the Rohr candidates, I feel a renewed faith in what Jewish literature can be, and how it can teach, stir and connect us. The Rohr Prize is one of the purest celebrations of excellence, creativity and Jewish imagination."
