For the first time, Shira Smiles' penetrating wisdom and wit have become within reach of every growth-seeking reader. Skillfully written and yet highly readable, Torah Tapestries makes the scholarship, charisma and appeal for which she's become famous accessible to readers worldwide, covering core topics like becoming a giver, overcoming life challenges , actualizing one's marriage and living life to the fullest.“It's a window to Biblical literature,” Smiles describes her book. “I wanted to show how Judaism's timeless wisdom applies beautifully to our modern-day lives, so I amassed a collection of gold nuggets from over 70 classic and contemporary sources spanning 2000 years and brought them together to form a central, critical idea for each weekly Torah portion.” Indeed, “gold nuggets” is an appropriate choice of words. Fascinating and uplifting, Torah Tapestries is a book that readers of all religious levels will treasure; with masterfully expressed eternal messages that include practical implications for the here and now, it's an invaluable resource that will change the way readers view G-d and His Torah.
