"A compassionate and comforting guide to the end of life…. We learn about what dying individuals fear, hope for and care about, and about how family and professionals can sensitively accompany them to their ends. The blend of scholarship and practical sensibility make this volume an invaluable resource."—Rabbi Dayle Friedman, author, Jewish Wisdom for Growing Older: Finding Your Grit and Grace Beyond Midlife; spiritual director, Growing Older (www.growingolder.co)"Filled with striking stories and wise interpretations. It will be a comfort and a guide to both those facing death and those who love them."—Rabbi David Wolpe, author, Making Loss Matter: Creating Meaning in Difficult Times"A rich goldmine of wisdom…. Recognizes death not as a physical endpoint but as a graceful transition to other realms of knowing and being…. This is a book to be read, studied and savored for all who are wrestling with mysteries of life and death."—Simcha Raphael, PhD, founding director, DA'AT Institute for Death Awareness, Advocacy and Training, Department of Psychology, Bryn Athyn College“Unique and impressive…. Their focus on the stories of the passing of Hasidic masters provides spiritual, ethical and personal insights that can easily be adapted to our current society…. A worthy addition to the growing discussion on meaning and purpose as life ebbs.”—Rabbi Richard F Address, DMin, director, Jewish Sacred Aging, LLC (www.jewishsacredaging.com)“Deeply in dialogue [with God] about the meaning, purpose and timing of death…. You will be stimulated to talk with your loved ones to transmit the ethical and practical details needed for your own end-of-life planning.”—Angelo Volandes, MD, MPH, cofounder and president, ACP Decisions; author, The Conversation; faculty, Harvard Medical School

The Book of Departure and Caring for People at the End of Life

Deathbed Wisdom of the Hasidic Masters

"Critical study of Levi has surged recently, and this is a fine addition to that literature. Sodi and Marcus (both, Italian,
Yale) have assembled an international group of prominent and emerging scholars of Italian, Holocaust, and Levi
literary studies. The primary obstacles to early dissemination of Levi's Survival in Auschwitz were the belief, on the
part of leading publishers, that the Holocaust could not be assimilated into conventional literary genre studies and the
early postwar repression of Italian Holocaust history to pursue the anti-Fascist narrative. Levi is credited with the
eventual Italian escalation of interest in Holocaust literary production and scholarship. Among the collection's best
essays are those that treat Levi's politics and involvement in anti-Fascist groups; his predeportation identity based on a
theory of "parallel nationalization," whereby Italianization was privileged over Jewish identity; and shifting Italian
Holocaust memory from 1958 (with the republication of Survival in Auschwitz) to 1963 (publication of The
Reawakening) and its subsequent decline. Other essays explore Freudian trauma theory in The Reawakening, Levi
and Italo Calvino, literariness of the Survival in Auschwitz canto section, and Levi's attitude toward Muselmänner.
One essay provides a questionable reading of If Not Now, When? through the lens of the American Western film
genre." - Choice

"It is usually said that the life of a writer is a life of the mind. Primo Levi is an exception: he wrote his masterpieces because he was acquainted with grief. The essays in this volume grasp this essential trait of his writings and acknowledge that they cannot be simply classified as contributions to the intellectual history of recent times. With extraordinary precision, all of them, together, open the door to the moral center of the writer's lived experience, to his unique art, and to the most profound oftragedies of the twentieth century." - Giuseppe Mazzotta, Sterling Professor in the Humanities for Italian, Yale University, and author of Dante's Vision and the Circle of Knowledge

"In their diverse ways, these essays testify to what by now should be irrefutably clear: Primo Levi was one of the most important writers of the past half-century. The brilliance of his achievement is clarified in the critical studies of this learned and engaging book." - Alvin H. Rosenfeld, Professor of English and Jewish Studies at Indiana University and author of A Double Dying: Reflections on Holocaust Literature and The End of the Holocaust

"An indispensable, wide-ranging collection of essays on a great writer and memorialist. Contributors analyze in depth not only his literary legacy but also his belated recognition as a world-class author, his relation to the Italian Jewish community, and Italy's 'cultural reticence' in dealing with the Holocaust." - Geoffrey Hartman, Professor of English and Comparative Literature, Emeritus, Yale University, author of The Longest Shadow: In the Aftermath of the Holocaust
