Larry is the secular son in a family of Orthodox Brooklyn Jews.
When his father dies, it's his responsibility to recite the
Kaddish, the Jewish prayer for the dead, every day for eleven
months. To the horror and dismay of his sister, Larry refuses -
imperilling the fate of his father's soul. To appease her, Larry
hatches an ingenious if cynical plan, hiring a stranger through a
website called kaddish.com to recite the prayer and shepherd his
father's soul safely to rest. This is Nathan Englander's freshest
and funniest work to date - a satire that touches, lightly and with
unforgettable humour, on the conflict between religious and secular
worlds, and the hypocrisies that run through both.
