Book excerpt: Every Tallit Tells a Tale is an inspired and inspiring collection of never-before-published essays and poems, all focusing on how a tallit, a Jewish prayer shawl, figures in and enriches each writers spiritual life. Every Tallit Tells a Tale reveals how the fringes of the tallit tie together generations within a family and generations within the larger family of all Jews. Tallit designers mesh their spiritual and creative urges as they weave or sew or knit prayer shawls for themselves or their loved ones. And for many writerswomen especiallydonning a tallit for the first time and uttering the age-old bracha, once exclusively reserved for men, takes on monumental significance.
