THE WHIMSICAL HAGGADAH (I-XIII)
– A Colorful Prayerbook
I think of the Haggadah as the liturgical book we color differently each year at a gathering where children are guests of honor.
Delighted in its many variations, expressed with illustrations and through commentaries (often ideological: denominational, feminist, vegetarian, etc.), I started weaving my way through this riveting, charming, theatrical, poetic, and structurally challenging (even annoying but with hidden beauty) text.
Like the Haggadah itself, the result is a structured but quirky series with threads appearing and disappearing, new strands added, and old reappearing.
- Titles in capital letters refer to the 15 steps of the Haggadah. Titles in quotation marks are quotes from the Haggadah.
