Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In My First Ninety Years, Naomi begins with stories of her grandparents Gussie Krumholz and Isidor Krumholz (cousins from the same town in Austria) – from their births, immigration to the United States in the pre-Ellis Island days, marriage, and lives. The reader learns of the birth of Naomi’s parents, Rose Krumholz and Max Rothbart, and of their days growing up in Brooklyn, as first-generation Americans, and their marriage and life together. Naomi was born in 1931 into a large and vibrant Jewish extended family. She was six when her parents and sister moved into the same house that Naomi’s grandparents bought years earlier (having realized their entrepreneurial immigrant dreams). In 1951, Naomi married Kenneth Rivlin, whose family emigrated from Wales after World War II. Naomi and Ken moved to Long Island, where they would raise a family of their own. The reader learns of Naomi and Ken’s lives, business ventures/careers, involvement with the local synagogue, leisure activities, success stories, and low points in life. The reader also gets to know Naomi and Ken’s children and grandchildren through Naomi’s words. Ms. Rivlin also offers words of wisdom, and some Jewish and Yiddish teachings, for her grandchildren. With characteristic bluntness, Naomi’s My First Ninety Years is funny and engaging, and written in an easy-to-read style. This book is a must read for anyone wanting an inside view of an extended family’s stories, jokes, gossip, wisdom, traditions/lore, and what might be some tall tales!

Book excerpt: The Talmud states, "In a world that lacks humanity, be human." In a world as untethered as ours has become, simply being human, a good person, is a measure of heroism. At a time when norms of civility are being routinely overwhelmed, it may be the only measure that matters. Mensch-Marks represents Rabbi Joshua Hammerman's personal Torah scroll—the sacred text of his experiences, the life lessons he has learned along his winding, circuitous journey. Mirroring 42 steps Israel wandered in the Wilderness, Hammerman offers 42 brief essays, several of which first appeared in The New York Times Magazine, organized into categories of character, or "mensch-marks," each one a stepping stone toward spiritual maturation. These essays span most of Rabbi Hammerman's life, revealing how he has striven to be a "mensch," a human of character, through every challenge. Mensch-Marks creates a brand-new genre. It is memoir as sacred story, as how-to book; a series of personal vignettes in dialogue with one another over the span of decades, resonating with eternal ideas that span centuries. It traces the author's own personal growth while providing a road map for people of all backgrounds seeking a life of moral vision. The wisdom is shared not from a pulpit on high, but rather from an unfolding story of a fellow traveler, one who has stumbled, failed, and persevered, struggling with the questions large and small. Through it all, Rabbi Hammerman has tried to live with dignity and grace, what he calls the "nobility of normalcy." He writes, "If by sharing what I've learned, I can add a modicum of generosity, honesty and human connection in a world overflowing with cruelty, loneliness and deceit, then I'll have done my job.' The essays cover crucial moments of failure and forgiveness, loving and letting go, finding deeper meaning in one's work, and holiness in the seemingly inconsequential moments of everyday life. Rabbi Hammerman, ever the optimist, believes that we can turn things around, one mensch at a time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marci: Tale of an Air Force Wife is the story of a woman's mid-life search for true love amidst a back drop that includes such exciting cities as Tokyo and Dallas. As we meet the title character, she is engaged in the often stressful and demanding lifestyle of her business career which takes her to the Far East to work at an American Embassy. During a chance encounter on a Japanese train with an interesting man, Marci begins doing something she hasn't done in ages she shares her life story: We see Marci as a very popular teenager with a propensity for men in uniform and with no shortage of Saturday-night dates. We follow her development from being a rather reserved young girl, to a young woman who is at home on the floor of a military dance. Not surprisingly, Marci marries a military man an Air Force Staff Sergeant named Rodney and the story follows Marci around the world as an Air Force wife to England, to Japan, and various locations back in the States. But what should have been an American-as-apple-pie life a military wife raising four children is seriously marred by awful secrets that Marci must deal with largely by herself. As Marci enters its concluding chapters, we again return to the present, and the beginning of a new phase of life. And so we leave Marci, full of hope. Because she knew the love of her life was out there, and this new man in her life, Philip, just might be him.
