Read each year around the seder table, the Haggadah recounts
through prayer, song, and ritual the extraordinary story of
Exodus, when Moses led the Israelites out of slavery in
Egypt to wander the desert for forty years before reaching
the Promised Land.
Now, Jonathan Safran Foer has orchestrated a new way of
experiencing and understanding one of our oldest, most
timeless, and sacred stories, with a new translation of the
traditional text by Nathan Englander and provocative
commentary by major Jewish writers and thinkers Jeffrey
Goldberg, Lemony Snicket, Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, and
Nathaniel Deutsch. Ravishingly designed and illustrated by
the acclaimed Israeli artist and calligrapher Oded Ezer, New
American Haggadah is an utterly unique and absorbing prayer
book, the first of its kind, that brings together some of
the preeminent voices of our time.
