chicagobob 's review for:

The Chosen by Chaim Potok
5.0

A reread, because I know I read this sometime 35-45 years ago. Chaim Potok could write! I greatly enjoyed the story of the two boys going from teens to early 20s, and the contrast between the Hassidic father and the modern Orthodox father in c. 1944-1949. It was also interesting to hear the description of those two world from that time by an author who lived in them.

Great book!
