There are stories about Jake growing up in the wide open spaces of Los Angeles as compared to Brooklyn where most of the Syrian Jews live and who still cling to the religious and cultural customs of the past. Other stories in the collection include "At the Store," "Hebrew Lessons," "Bar Mitzvah Boy," "Syrian Jewish Football," "A Double-Edged Sword" and more.
