Editorial Reviews:
Review:"Rosen...writes with uncommon assurance about contemporary Judaism....Above all, this is a welcoming and intelligent look at Deborah's efforts to weld her many identities--woman, rabbi, Jew--into a cohesive whole."
Publishers Weekly, 07/12/2004
Review:"[E]legantly written....Second-novelist Rosen is a serious explorer of Jewish American life today....[T]he ideas take top billing, with the plot a distant also-ran."
Kirkus, 07/15/2004

Joy Comes in the Morning: A Novel (ISBN: 0374180261 / 0-374-18026-1) Rosen, Jonathan Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2004. Hardcover. Book Condition: New. Clean, tight, unmarked, no spine or cover creases.() Deborah Green is a woman of passionate contradictions--a rabbi who craves goodness and surety while wrestling with her own desires and with the sorrow and pain she sees around her. Her life changes when she visits the hospital room of Henry Friedman, an older man who has attempted suicide. His parents were murdered in the Holocaust when he was a child, and all his life he's struggled with difficult questions: Can happiness really come after such loss, or does the very wish profane the dead? Can religious promises ever bring peace? Deborah's encounter with Henry and his family draws her into a world of tragedy, frailty, love, and, finally, hope.
