The Struggle

The night before his bar mitzvah, Uri is involved in a fire that kills his mother. Hideously disfigured, he wrestles with guilt until meeting The Professor, head of cult organization, The Struggle. Believing he has finally found acceptance, when the FBI begins to investigate The Professor, Uri has some tough choices to make. Carolyn Geduld’s THE STRUGGLE is an unusual and, at times, unsettling novel that explores darkly disturbing themes through a powerful, uncompromising, and brutal narrative. Uri is a bleakly compelling protagonist whose psychological struggles provide an intensely compulsive read.
