Helpful Score: 1
Auslander opens his book by announcing his wife is expecting their first child. However, after having read this poorly written "memoir", I fear for the well being and safety of this child. Auslander plays up his "I'm the victim" role without taking any responsibility for his own actions. Everything he does is someone else's fault, be it his parents, his siblings, his friends, or even some nice young couples who tried to invite him and his wife over for sabbath dinner.
This book seems largely fabricated as well, or at least I hope that it is because I find it hard to believe someone could be this whiny and self-absorbed in real life. I'm glad I didn't buy this book, because I would hate to have such a person profit off me. For a respectful look at Orthodox Jews and religion, read A. J. Jacobs " The Year of Living Biblically".
