When Bad Things Happen to Good People (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781400034727)

#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The inspirational classic from a renowned spiritual leader that "offers a moving and humane approach to understanding life's windstorms" (Elisabeth K?ler-Ross).

When Harold Kushner's three-year-old son was diagnosed with a degenerative disease that meant the boy would only live until his early teens, he was faced with one of life's most difficult questions: Why, God? Years later, Rabbi Kushner wrote this straightforward, elegant contemplation of the doubts and fears that arise when tragedy strikes. In these pages, Kushner shares his wisdom as a rabbi, a parent, a reader, and a human being. Often imitated but never superseded, When Bad Things Happen to Good People is a classic that offers clear thinking and consolation in times of sorrow.
