"Terrace Talks" Summer Series: The Sabbath World: Glimpses of a Different Order of Time July 7, 2010

Author Judith Shulevitz in conversation with Nicholas Lemann, dean, Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism

"The Sabbath World is not merely riveting, wise and at times breathtakingly beautiful, it… just might change your life." —Jonathan Safran Foer

Part history, part meditation, Shulevitz’s book delves into the Sabbath in Judaism and Christianity while invoking a wealth of non-religious sources, from William Wordsworth to Sigmund Freud.
