Bleacher Report - Jan 14, 2012
It's more like Bernard Malamud or maybe Robert Heinlein or Stephen King. It is wonderful, fantastic, out of this world and a bit scary, especially if you are an NFL purist. All season, Tebow has been downplayed, ridiculed and belittled for his ...

My Father Is a Book

by: Janna Malamud Smith
On the twentieth anniversary of Bernard Malamud's death, Janna Malamud Smith explores her renowned father's life and literary legacy. Malamud was among the most brilliant novelists of his era, the author of the Pulitzer Prize winner The Fixer, as well as The Natural and The Assistant -- named one of the best "100 All-Time Novels" by Time. He counted among his friends Philip Roth, Saul Bellow, Theodore Roethke, and Shirley Jackson. Yet Malamud was also very private. Only his family has had full access to his personal papers, including revealing letters and journals that offer unique insight into the man and his work.

Blood Libel: The Life and Memory of Mendel Beilis

by: Mendel Beilis
One of the great trials of the twentieth century was the 1913 blood-libel trial of Mendel Beilis in Czarist Russia.  Beilis, a Jew, was arrested in 1911 by the Czarist secret police and accused of ritually murdering a Christian boy to use his blood in baking matzah for Passover. Beilis was jailed for over two years, under horrible conditions, while awaiting trial.  He heroically resisted all pressure to implicate himself or other Jews.  In 1913, after a dramatic trial that riveted the Jewish people and much of the rest of the world, Beilis was acquitted by an all-Christian jury.
