Poetry. Jewish Studies. "MY BROTHER'S KEEPER, is an enlightening, disturbing, and profound journey. It signals that spiritual values remain crucial. The poet mourns his wayward brother, and celebrates renewal when writing of his youngest son. Between grieving for the troubled sibling and love for a young man about to stand for his bar mitzvah, the Jewish rite of passage from boyhood to manhood, there is much artful interweaving of images, some horrifying and others uplifting. It is personal history made universal through Rothman's gift for language. In haunting tones and dramatic shifts of mood, MY BROTHER'S KEEPER delivers poetry that is memorable and deeply touching."--Neeli Cherkovski
