Hear writers Shalom Auslander and A. J. Jacobs on this edition of Fresh Air. Auslander is the author of the memoir Foreskin's Lament, about growing up in a strict, socially isolated Orthodox Jewish community and his attempt to break free of it. Tom Perrotta (author of Little Children) describes the book as a "scathing theological rant, a funny, oddly moving coming-of-age memoir." Auslander has also written for The New Yorker, Esquire, and The New York Times Magazine, and he is the author of the short-story collection Beware of God. A. J. Jacobs is the editor at large of Esquire. His latest year-long experiment resulted in the book The Year of Living Biblically: One Man's Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible. He is also is the author of a book, The Know-It-All, about the year he spent reading the entire Encyclopedia Britannica.
