This is my third time reading this book and I think it is still considered my favorite fiction book.
Asher Lev is a young Jewish boy who cannot help but paint. His father works for the Rebbe and thinks that painting is a waste of time. His mother is torn between the conflict between Asher and his dad.
The story follows Asher as he grows as a painter and a person.
Heartbreaking, stressful, and deeply passionate.
