Publisher Description
A unifying narrative for divided times, Bent Toward Justice tells the story of Murray Schwartzman, a Polish Jew who survived the Holocaust and escaped to America. But while Schwartzman may have found respite from external conflict in his peaceful and supportive American Jewish community, he faces a new internal upheaval. An encounter with an apparently anti-Semitic doctor forces Schwartzman to confront his beliefs about Palestinians being the enemy of the Jewish people.
Martin Luther King Jr. believed the moral arc of the universe bends toward justice. Bent Toward Justice embodies that theme with a story about a morally passionate man who begins to question his beliefs, leading him to discover he was guilty of the kind of prejudice that he so fervently despised.
This audiobook features the final performance of Ed Asner (1929–2021), best remembered for his role as Lou Grant in The Mary Tyler Moore Show and in Lou Grant, for which he won seven Emmy Awards.
