    Three Religions, Three Cultures and A Search for Identity

    Memoirist and filmmaker Sadia Shepard


    Back from a week in Italy, my friends, more on that later.

    In the meantime, please check out my latest piece for Interfaithfamily.com. It's a profile on Sadia Shepard and her memoir, "The Girl from Foreign: A Search for Shipwrecked Ancestors, Forgotten Histories and a Sense of Home".

    I hope you'll enjoy my piece, "Three Religions, Three Cultures and A Search for Identity".

    I read this book and could not put it down. My wife thought it very funny. I enjoyed the difference in the 3 worlds of the US, India and Pakistan. Each of these gave a lense into her life and some fanastic stories. I also loved finding out about the Jewish communities in India that she was able to engage.

    Thank you so much.

    I also couldn't put it down. I read it all in almost one entire Shabbos day. I hope my book is as interesting. :)
