Walking with the Light

by Jonathan Wittenberg

Read by Anthony Tibber
In 2010, with his dog Mitzpah by his side, Rabbi Wittenberg walked from his grandfather's Frankfurt synagogue to his own, in Finchley, carrying the Ner Tamid - its Eternal Light - to co-shine forever in the newly built synagogue in North London. A film crew covered most of the trip and even Mitzpah wrote a blog, describing his experiences on the epic journey. Colleagues and friends accompanied them for some of the route and their discussions also contributed insights into the spiritual, social and political concerns that occupied the Rabbi's thoughts as he continued to meet many people along the way. Readers of Jonathan Wittenberg's other books already know the humane, insightful and often profound observations and thoughts that preoccupy him. Walking with the Light: From Frankfurt to Finchley will both delight and stimulate a whole new audience. Few religious writers can combine the humour and incidence of walking across northern Europe with cogent arguments for moral justice, a process perhaps to accept Europe's horrific past and show why a belief that tolerance and true understanding of the past is the only way to improve the future.

Who Wrote the Bible

by Richard Elliot

Read by Clive Roslin

A fascinating investigation of the first five books of the Bible, the Torah. Friedman begins an investigation and analysis that reads as compellingly as a good detective story. Drawing upon biblical and archaeological evidence to make a convincing argument for the identities of their authors, he paints a vivid picture of the world of the Bible - its politics, history, and personalities. The result is a marvel of scholarship that sheds a new and enriching light on our understanding of the Bible as literature, history and sacred text.

21 Aldgate


by Patricia Friedberg

Read by Rita Rosenbaum (1 Cd)

21 Aldgate is a work of historical fiction. It’s a story of love and war set in England during the build up to the Second World War. Clara is a young woman from London's Jewish East End who gets a job helping the famous French artist, Paul Maze, in the writing of his book. During this time they start a passionate love affair that forever changes her. Most of all this story bears witness to prejudice, bias and aggression which influenced privileged society at that time. It is also about a place that no longer exists except in fading memories and tells a story of class distinction, people, traditions and of a family and its fate.

Adjusting Sights


by Haim Sabato

Read by Anthony Tibber (1 Cd)

When war breaks out abruptly in 1973, childhood friends Haim and Dov are called up together to serve in their tank battalion, but in the chaos of battle, the friends are separated. A month later, Haim returns alone, on his first leave home. As he struggles to come to terms with his experiences, weary and saddened but sustained by his religious faith, there is one question that remains uppermost in Haim s mind: What happened to Dov during those fateful days after the outbreak of war? This is a lightly fictionalized biography written in a style reminiscent of S.Y. Agnon, Adjusting Sights is not a book about religion, politics, or the rights and wrongs of war, but rather, it s a story about the personal experiences of a 19-year old man who has to adjust not only the sights of his gun, but also his understanding of the world in which he lives.

All for Love

by Dan Jacobson

Read by Hilary Michel
A very easy read full of interest for anyone who enjoys reading about Royal families and their scandals. This particular story is about the relationship between Princess Louise, daughter of King Leopald II of the Belgians, wife of Prince Philip of Sax - Coburg, a figure in the court of Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria-Hungary. Her lover was 2nd Lietenant Geza Mattachich. Ten years younger than her, a dashing figure but an unknown, undistinguished, unmoneyed subaltern of dubious origin and extravagant ambition. The story moves from one end to the other of pre-1st world war Europe. This book shuffles between historical fact and fiction, elevating 3 extraordinary characters in a drama that is both comic and painful and as astonishing as it is convincing.
