bookwormmichelle 's review for:

The Chosen by Chaim Potok

5.0

---

This is a reread for me. In fact I've likely read this book 10 or more times. Never get tired of it! I first discovered Potok as a teen and gobbled everything I could find, including this book. Reread it several times as a teen, and then found it as required reading in my college Christ in Scriptures theology course! I learned to love it even more then and every time I reread it I am impressed anew. I'd give it more stars if I could. If I had to choose a best American novelist of the 20th century, I can't think who I'd choose if not Potok. Beautiful story.

Yet another reread, for a book club. Happy to introduce my friends to this old friend of mine. This never disappoints.
