The Believers Paperback - 2010
by Zoe Heller
A tough, wise, and funny book about a family that has to grow up all at once--and that includes the grown-ups. A sustaining, intelligent novel about how the big questions affect and change all our small lives.--Anne Enright, author "The Gathering."
From the rear cover
When a stroke fells radical New York lawyer Joel Litvinoff, a secret is revealed that forces Audrey, his wife, to reexamine everything she believed about their forty-year marriage. In the meantime Joel's children are struggling with their own dilemmas and doubts. Disillusioned revolutionary Rosa has been drawn into the world of Orthodox Judaism. Karla, a devoted--and married--social worker hoping to adopt a child, is falling in love with the owner of a newspaper stand. Lenny, the ne'er-do-well, faces yet another relapse into heroin addiction. In the course of battling their own demons--and one another--the Litvinoffs must reexamine long-held articles of faith and decide what--if anything--they still believe in.
