Formidable récit d'une aventure humaine, personnelle, à l'échelle d'un quartier et d'une tradition. Shulem Deen explique, avec compassion et sans jugement, ce que cela signifie d'être pris dans une tradition qui devient un moule, où tous les aspects de la vie quotidienne, de l'habillement à la pratique religieuse en passant par la nourriture sont déterminés par des règles millénaires qui n'ont plus rien à voir avec le monde d'aujourd'hui. Comment ce "cocon", protecteur, devient contraignant, et finit par exploser, pour peu que l'on se pose des questions. Et à quel point il est difficile de se reconstruire "en-dehors", quand tout est à recommencer, et que l'on ne connait pas les codes "des autres" et de la "normalité".
Livre arrivé très vite, il est tout neuf comme indiqué lors de la vente. Je n'ai plus qu'à l'offrir ! Merci !
I really enjoyed this book for the window into the lives of the Hasidim, but especially for the spiritual journey of the writer. It helped my own spiritual journey away from formal religion progress.
Clearly dealt with the issues of belief and the difficulty of leaving a sect.It also demonstrated the crowd effect in a closed circle of belief.
As I was drafting my review of Shulem Deen's memoir - I was looking for one phrase that would explain how deeply his words had reached me. Then I read Deen's Op-Ed about the tragedy of Faigy Mayer's suicide (forward.com/opinion/July 24, 2015). In this poignant piece, it was Deem who gave me the words: "What is it that drives so many in our community to despair...We must extend a hand to the person on the ledge. We must offer a home to those who are homeless..." "All Who Go Do Not Return" is not only an honest and heartbreaking story of one man's journey to find the truth, it is a universal story of any person of any religious faith who begins to doubt the rigidity of a religious sect that discourages - even forbids - the asking of questions. Instead of strengthening faith, it sadly may destroy it!Beautifully written and revealing, Deem provides a vivid education into the courage and personal sacrifice it takes for any person to make the difficult decision to be true to their own feelings - to follow a different path. Sadly, for some, that brave path leads to tragedy, as it did for Faigy Mayer. For some, it is a total loss of the security found in being part of the only community they have ever known. For some it means a total break with family ties. But for some, it also leads to educational, professional, and personal development - and a way to balance one's love for their religion with their need for independence and freedom.Deen's literary ability to express his feelings, his doubts, his painful journey... all lead to a story that will tear at even the most rigid heartstrings. Although his story is true, Deem joins the characters like Asher Lev in My Name Is Asher Lev by Chaim Potok, Shoshana Rosen in Shoshana's Song by Jerry Marcus, and Batsheva Ha-Levi in Jephte's Daughter by Naomi Ragen. Shulem Deen is unforgettable!
Eye opening and enlightening book! I've been to Israel several times and lived there for a year. As a Christian, I wanted to learn more about the Jewish people and their customs, traditions, and faith. It was an amazing year and I made many Jewish friends from different backgrounds. I loved learning about their history and was delighted to see the many different "streams" of people within the Jewish faith. However, the one group which remained a mystery after my year in Israel were the Hasidic Jews. Sure, I encountered them on a daily basis. Yet, due to their "closed off" lifestyle and community, I was unable to learn much about them. Of course, I researched and read what I could about them. Most of what I read was basic information about their history and practices. I couldn't find anything that really got in depth about their day to day life. That's why I was extatic after reading Shulem's book! I couldn't put this book down and read it in less than 24 hours. I was instantly engrossed in his story and felt that for the first time I was given a glimpse into a Hasidic community. The book is detailed enough that you can grasp the day to day lifestyle they live. I particularly like the fact that Shulem is so transparent with his feelings, including his weaknesses and struggles. He doesn't "sugar coat" his experiences and admits when he makes mistakes. He writes with sincerity about his pain and the losses he suffered in order to free himself and follow new paths in his life. I have the utmost respect that he found the inner strength to pursue a new path regardless of what it cost him. I would like to see him write a second book detailing his life since. Where has life taken him now? Did he ever reconnect with any of his children and were they able to build a strong relationship again? I highly recommend this book! It gives a fascinating look into a very closed community which those on the outside rarely get to hear about.
This is my review from Goodreads:About six nights ago, I finished this memoir by ex-Hasid Shulem Deen. It was mesmerizing. There were two things I liked about this book: the story itself and the writing.The Story Itself: Shulem's JourneyShulem was the son of ex-hippy converts. As a Hasidic Jew, he lived mostly in the village of Square, New York, a loyal member of the Sklever sect of ultra-orthodox Jews. That devotion, however, had begun to waver after he submitted to an unwanted marriage in his late teens. Five children and several cash-poor careers later, Deen would become disillusioned with the Haredi way of life. After being outed as a non-believer, he was declared an apikoros (heretic) and banished from New Square. Unsurprisingly, divorce followed shortly, painfully accompanied by permanent separation from his children. All Who Go Do Not Return is a moving look back at the roots of Deen's journey from die-hard tradition to modernity. With a clear and honest eye, Deen examines the reasons for his loss of faith and departure from a world he once cherished. The reader will empathize with his difficult choices and his struggle for a real future.As my reading of this memoir progressed, I realized that Shulem's destiny was almost foretold from day one. It wasn't hard for me to understand why this young man's life took the course it did. His rebellious tendencies (ditching Torah study as a young teen, listening to the radio, buying a tv, buying a computer, frequenting the library, starting a blog, patronizing bars in Manhattan, eating non-kosher foods, losing faith, ultimately, in God), his ouster from the Sklevers, and his embrace of atheism and secular life were anticipated, assured, especially when I regarded the his parents' background.The author's mother and father were middle-class secular Jewish kids who became "Baal Teshuva" (converts to haredi Judaism). Even after settling in Borough Park as brand new, gung-ho Satmar Jews, this committed young couple remained outsiders in distinct ways. Deen explained that his parents shopped in Greenwich Village when he was a boy, spoke English rather than Yiddish in their home, and listened to the forbidden radio. Family living a bit outside the bounds of strict tradition would affect the Jewish path Shulem would take.Shulem Deen's parents were 60's idealists, truth-seekers, and intellectuals. Full participants of their era, Dovid Deen and his wife were college students-turned-hippies of the Age of Aquarius. They lived in communes, worshipped the Beatles, and loved Woodstock. A seeker in every sense of the word, Shulem's father would eventually find his destiny in the strict world of the Satmar Jews. Dovid was drawn to their old-fashioned ways; their customs of centuries past; their piety and simplicity. In that extremist sphere, he saw God, tenderness, and authenticity. That ultra-orthodox way of life was exactly what he had been seeking, and he was finally able to reignite his blazing intellect within the fervent walls of the yeshivas (buildings of religious study). Dovid fell madly in love with the Satmars and became a rabbi. Shulem commented that his peace-loving outsider parents at first probably never fully felt the underlying hardness of that world, so turned on by the old-hat warmth and charm were they. I concur. Obviously, Hasidic New York, with its black dress, zeal, Yiddish words, kosher food, rejection of "regular" society, unending Torah study, poverty, and angst, was kryptonite to a young romantic like Dovid Deen.This once was the world of Shulem Deen. Within the orthodox enclaves of Borough Park, New Square, Monsey, and Williamsburg, this young Hasidic son of counterculture visionaries will be born, reared, married, at the end of this tale, ejected. In this bittersweet coming-of-age memoir, young Deen faces disillusionment, loss, and the crumbling of an old identity. Having no choice, he will be forced to come to terms with his parents' past and choices. As a result of his search, he must embrace his birthright and construct a new self. The "new" Shulem Deen is the author of this book. He is now a full-fledged member of the outside world. He is a "regular" guy, a proud Brooklynite, and a successful writer. Deen is a lot like his father in certain ways. He does respect his roots as an offspring of 60s hippies, but he is also a realist. Plainspoken, authentic and wise, he is a work in progress.Shulem Deen's WritingAll Who Go Do Not Return is good writing. I am a regular person; an old-fashioned lover of stories, and truthfully, the writing always comes first when I review a book in my head. I have a weakness for writing that fuses expressiveness and maturity, and this book delivers the goods. For example, one of the most stirring and unforgettable descriptions of a child ever penned by a parent is found in this book. It is a description of one of the daughters that Shulem lost to his wife later in the story:"Chaya Suri, five, was a shy little girl, with big, dark eyes and chestnut hair. She resented being grouped with the little ones, but families orient themselves in natural ways, and such was her lot: earlier bedtimes, the colorful, cartoon-covered dishes and fat little forks, always being shooed away from Tziri and Freidy’s collaborations on arts and crafts projects or impromptu dance performances. Instead, Chaya Suri turned to the little boys behind her, showing early signs of a tomboyish nature. Later, I’d think of her as a Hasidic version of Harper Lee’s Scout, skinny and agile and often up in a tree, gazing out at the world from a place in which no one would bother her."All Who Goes Do Not Return by Shulem Deen 2015, (Loc. 3111 on Kindle Voyage)A loving, sad, playful, evocative tribute to a child later lost. As a read and re-read this passage, I kept asking myself how anyone mostly self-taught could have this degree of talent? It is amazing.There are more gems:"I was unaware that even with a strong case, custody battles could cost tens of thousands of dollars. I was unaware that, when held in Rockland County, custody battles in our community required rabbis, community leaders, and Orthodox family therapists on your side. I was unaware that family courts were also part of the local political machinery and that elections were never far from a judge’s mind. I was unaware that my relatively meager resources were no match for a powerfully resourceful community with an ideological stake in the future of my children. Most of all, I was naive about the power of religious extremists to control even the minds of children."All Who Go Do Not Return by Shulem Deen, 2016 (Loc. 4523 on Kindle Voyage)I wish I could write more about this book. There is so much more to talk about. I got to this memoir late, typically. I am glad I finally picked it up. All Who Goes is a treasure-trove of good writing, and the story itself is bittersweet and intriguing. I highly recommend this memoir to book-lovers everywhere. I am oddly proud of Shulem (I hope he finds God again), and I will keep him on my list of writers to watch.
