Critic Reviews
“Fierce, funny, and subversively heartfelt...With his middle finger pointed at the heavens and a hand held over his heart, Auslander gives us Foreskin’s Lament. Mazel tov to him. And God? Well, he’ll survive.”—New York Times Book Review
“Auslander writes like Philip Roth’s angry nephew... a scathing theological rant, a funny, oddly moving coming-of-age memoir, and an irreverent meditation on family, marriage, and cultural identity. God may be a bit irritated by this book, but I loved it.”—Tom Perrotta, author of Little Children and The Abstinence Teacher
“A laugh-out-loud quarrel with God.”—Newsweek
“A terrific book I was sad I read in so few sittings, because I wanted more.”
—San Francisco Chronicle
“Hilarious, caustic, and surprisingly moving.” —Philadelphia Inquirer
“Blasphemous and funny.”—Newsweek
“A surprise and delight.”—Boston Globe
“A fretful, self-effacing, bitter…hilarious story.”—The Houston Chronicle
“Wryly comic.”—New York Magazine
“Hilarious, caustic, and surprisingly moving.”—Philadelphia Inquirer
“A very funny memoir.”—GQ
“Lyrical, hysterical… funny and angry.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer
“An audacious, poke-God-in-the eye memoir.”—Miami Herald
