A Novel

by Michael Lowenthal

Not yet rated

Once, in sleep, identical twins Jacob and Jonathan Rosenbaum breathed in perfect rhythm - a bond that seemed unbreakable as the convictions that now divide them as adults. At 24, Jacob is a gay activist living in Boston whilst Jonathan's embrace of Judaism has taken him to a yeshiva in Jerusalem. In the shadow of his best friend's death jacob travels to Israel in the hope of reconnecting with his brother but it is a journey that will bring two lives that are world's apart together and force Jacob to examine his sexual and religious identities.
