The Torah Sutras



I am very pleased that my book, The Torah Sutras, has been published by Albion-Andalus Books and is available for purchase through AMAZON.

Here is a description of the work:

Offering an inspired mix of non-fiction, fiction, and poetry, The Torah Sutras presents Judaism through a distinctly Chinese spiritual lens. Any actual writings of early Jewish communities in China have been lost, so this book fills in that space by imagining an account of Chinese "lost books" of the Torah. Structured as an English translation of these fictional Chinese writings, the Torah Sutras tells the story of the Exodus from Egypt with a Chinese voice, from the points of view of Moses, Aaron and Miriam. The book threads a careful line that reformulates some of Judaism’s primary assumptions by recasting them into Daoist, Buddhist, and Confucian forms. This is a book for those who wish to stretch their spiritual muscles— to move beyond what they think they know of God and the Jewish religion and tradition, and move into new and unexpected territory
