The Hole in the Heart Monte Jaffe

This book is a combination of a novel and a play.




The Hole In The Heart is a story about survival. Sam and his son Yitzchak were victims of the Nazi plague. They were separated from each other when Yitzchak was a child. After years of confusion they were reunited. Emptiness had taken over the space where love and hope had once lived in their hearts. Yes, they were alive, but was living worth the effort? WAS BEING ALIVE WORTH THE EFFORT?




We all start living on a rising line. After some time the line begins to flatten and bend downwards . It curves downwards towards the same earth from which we have risen. Was living a joke? There is as much proof to show that God is a sadist as there is to show that He or She is loving.

The author wishes the reader a pleasant life. If wisdom is difficult to achieve, there is always sex and whisky.
