Negative Positive
Title: pornville?
Review: This book describes the odyssey of a journalist wholly uncomfortable with his Jewish identity. If you appreciate literary works grounded on negativity and inner turmoil, you will feel right at home with this tome. Bloom's personal vendetta with the entire Hasidic community is based on his unfortunate encounters with several severe personalities within the Hasidic community.As a writer intending to pen a work of non-fiction, Bloom selectively chooses his "information" according to his convenience. Case in point; while expounding on the virtues of the town of Postville, the author is meticulous in transmitting precise details. However, when discussing the malevolent and baseless myth that Hasid's fornicate through a perforated sheet, Bloom does not bother to discredit this demonizing falsity. No less than on three occasions does Mr. Bloom mention this supposed tradition. And each time he fails in debunking this sexual scuttlebutt.
