批評家のレビュー
"Rabbi Allen explores in her stimulating debut the 'immense potential of creativity' to cast 'ancient Jewish wisdom' in a new light . . . Through a clever mix of artistic exercises and rabbinic wisdom, Allen encourages readers to 'peel back layers of what we think we know' to construct new understandings of their faith and themselves. It's a unique and invigorating lens on Judaism." —Publishers Weekly
"For most of human history, art-making was viewed as a way of honoring and dialoguing with the divine. But in a secular age, we often forget that our creative vision is not an individual possession; it is a verb that ties us into divine communion with our ecologies. In The Place of All Possibility, Rabbi Adina Allen offers us an answer to this desaturated worldview. She gifts us an updated, animistic view of Jewish mysticism and storytelling that generously 'beckons us to return to our depths, the chaos within.' Here is the creative spring that welcomes microbes and rootlets alongside dazzling angels and perplexing midrash." —Sophie Strand, author of The Flowering Wand: Rewilding the Sacred Masculine and The Madonna Secret
"This book is a window into the sacred methodology of the Jewish Studio Process, which invites us into a multidirectional process of discovery—of Torah and of self. In this time of so much heartache, when the world conspires to have us shut down, Rabbi Allen inspires us to 'make art about it'—to unlock the creative possibilities that call out from our ancient texts and traditions, and that reside in each of us. The Place of All Possibility is beautiful and heart-opening." —Rabbi Sharon Brous, author of The Amen Effect: Ancient Wisdom to Mend Our Broken Hearts and World
