My Name is Asher Lev by Chaim Potok
4.0

Could Art and Religion be compatible? This book tells us the story of a little boy named Asher Lev, a Hasidic Jew who develops an extraordinary artistic sense from 4. Unfortunately for his parents, who are very believers in his community, it is only a vice he must combat to not "fall" into the other world. It is, therefore, a real heartbreak for Asher, and it is exciting/interesting to follow this child's journey and then this adolescent.
