Die Trying by Shalom Tzvi Shore

Die Trying Tales and Tantrums from a life lived religiously by Shalom Tzvi Shore

This is an autobiography by a guy who was raised it seems in the Old City in an Aish insider family. He seems to have gone to a Rappaport school which are those places where they go through all of Tanach and Mishnah before starting Gemara. That sounds like a good idea except as is the rule in the frum world they screw it up with megalomaniacal inhumanity such as doing nothing but memorizing and having only 1 day off a year. Oh yeah, they have zero sense of humor too.

The book is so well written that I feel as though I'm listening to the Beatles sing harmony or watching Larry Bird play basketball. This guy was way too smart for the Aish scene or possibly any Orthodox Jewish scene because face it, we are bunch of anti-intellectual clods at best and abusive pricks the rest of the time.

Here's the book. Die Trying by Shalom Shore - Freidom Fighter - Mockery Will Set you Free

You will love it if you are a normal person. And if you are a frum person you'll hate it and that will give me joy because I want to see you suffer since you made me suffer.
