On Three Pillars: Torah, Worship, and the Practice of Loving Kindness, the Synagogues of Brooklyn

By: Lopate, Phillip

Book Overview

An evocative look at the locations for worship in the Jewish communities of Brooklyn. Some are still functioning while others have been converted for new use, such as youth centres and government offices. The photographs are haunting and unavoidably elegiac and redefine the understanding of sacred space for sanctified use.
