About this title

Synopsis

"Caught in the Act is about surrender. . . . The book is unconventional in form and manner, and is told in a brisk, conversational style that's immediate and engaging. It has a mystery and beauty all its own."—Robert Leiter, Jewish Exponent

Caught in the Act is a memoir of daily living in which Lippe brings us on a journey of awareness so that we perceive how being, knowing, and doing shape our daily existence.

Born in London, Toinette Lippe had a long and distinguished career at Alfred A. Knopf. In 1989 she founded Bell Tower, where she published seventy books that nourished the soul, illuminated the mind, and spoke directly to the heart.
