NO OF PAGES: 45 SUB CAT I: Bar/Bat Mitzvah SUB CAT II: Fiction SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: A beautifully produced gift book that unites the words of David Mamet, perhaps America's most active and esteemed playwright, with stunning artwork by renowned artist Donald Sultan to explore Jewish and universal themes. On the ever of his bar mitzvah, a boy learns about life from an old man in whose hands an antique watch reveals something of the man's relation to God. This brief tale, written in the familiar cadences of the best Mamet dialogue, moves on a mysterious journey from the intricacies of watchmaking to the horrors of the Holocaust, as the old man shares his understanding of life's struggles and what it means to "be a good Jew." Sultan's striking images provide a counterpoint to Mamet's storey, as gilded clocks and elaborate timepieces yield to blank watch faces, barbed wire, empty windows, and stark architectural renderings. Evocative of the past while strikingly contemporary, accessible yet purposely elusive, Bar Mitzvah is a beautiful and thought-provoking book--a meaningful gift for a boy or girl on the brink of adulthood, a powerful work from two masters of their art forms.NOTES: Purchased from Amazon Marketplace.
