Master storyteller Erich Segal has enthralled millions of readers worldwide with such record-breaking and critically acclaimed bestsellers as Love Story and more recently The Class and Doctors. Now, in this eagerly awaited new novel, Erich Segal brings us his most ambitious work to date.
Acts of Faith is a spellbinding story of three extraordinary people whose lives are forever changed when sacred and secular worlds collide.
Timothy Hogan, abandoned at birth, raised in a stormy Irish household, seems headed for a life of delinquency—until a chance confrontation sets him on the road to the priesthood and a spectacular rise in the Roman Catholic hierarchy.
Daniel Luria, the only son of Rabbi Moses Luria, is destined to succeed his father as leader of the community of Orthodox Jews who have made their home in a tiny corner of Brooklyn. He is also destined to break his father’s heart.
Deborah Luria, his sister, has been raised to be docile and dutiful—the perfect rabbi’s wife. But she too will defy her father and venture into a world the patriarch would never dare imagine.
Erich Segal’s Acts of Faith is a towering novel of piety, passion, and politics that explores the mysteries of religious faith to penetrate the ultimate mystery of the human heart.
