When the Hebrews ask Moses with trepidation, what to expect of the Wilderness, Moses replies: "Don't expect Las Vegas". Who is there to give advice? Ask Avigail, a feisty, Biblical-era sagette!!!

Review Foreword by Yori Yanover Feminine Midrash Meets Standup Comedy and They Live Ever After I've often wondered if my love for my Jewish tradition were nearly as strong had I been born a woman (mind you, I thank God every single morning for His choice in my case). It takes a very special person—particularly if she did not grow up in a traditional home—to find her unique, feminine diamond in the testosterone-gorged rough of our tradition. One such uniquely gifted individual is author and standup comic Shashi Charton Ishai, whose Avigail, a Biblical time Dear Abby "sagette" (a female sage) is witty and funny, without ever losing sight of the gravity and depth of the intellectual landscape of her writing. The timeframe for Avigail's advice column is mid-to-late 13th century BCE, when the Israelites have been liberated from Egyptian slavery. One way they deal with their everyday problems is by seeking Avigail’s advice. "Anyway, when we were back in Egypt, it was very difficult to engage the children in games when it was raining boils, locusts and tax auditors outside. When wild beasts ran through Egypt (I’m referring to the animals, not the teenagers), it was hard to send your children across the street to play with a school chums. When Yetta Aronowitz sent her son, Yacov, she didn’t realize how allergic he was to lions... he broke out in eczema, as the lion put on a bib." Don't forget to tip your waitress. It’s an enjoyable read, you’ll probably want to read portions aloud to your loved ones. It works.
About the Author The moment Shashi Charton Ishai sat up in her carriage and said her first words, "Arthur Godfrey," her folks knew she was destined for the Arts. Her brother, Steve, who was nine years older, read her George Orwell's ANIMAL FARM as a bedtime story. To this day, she suffers from involuntary facial twitches, every time she passes a hardware store and spots a jar of glue. Her mother lived on a steady diet of gumdrops, cigarettes and coffee (no sugar). She loved to read the Star Magazine and preferred fictional friends to real ones. Her father's hobby was collecting unslicable cheese ends at the local supermarket. Upon his untimely demise, the Appetizing Department held the cheese flags at half mast. Shashi hails from North Bergen, N.J. She received an M.A.T. in English as a Second Language, and worries that her foreign students are tawking, eating chawklit, walking their dawgs and planning to visit New Yawk. She is married to Yacov Ishai, and they have two adopted children: Zehava (China), and Zaki (Guatemala). They have moved to Netanya, Israel from Teaneck, New Jersey. They also have a dog named Stanley Fisher, named after the economics whiz. If this book sells and they accumulate some money, Stanley will tell them where to bury it. It is the only bank where there is no penalty for early withdrawl, except for a sperm bank.

Under ANY circumstances By Clarkissima In the beginning, Shashi Ishai (channeling Avigail the Loquacious) created a timeless go-to guide for people of the mordant and understandably melancholic Hebraic strain...and their friends. Here are the answers to all of life's burning questions: what do you call the "embalming gel" that surrounds and preserves gefilte fish? How do you resign yourself to your daughter's unfortunate choice of mate? What about that "covet" commandment--does it apply to your neighbor's fine china? Under ANY circumstances, this compendium of advice from a BCE yenta is a jewel. The doctor says laughter is good for you--read it and laugh!

Although that's the point, to give the reader a fun time, there is also some great insightful comments from Avigail. If you want to read a fun book by someone who for my money, has a wonderful and unique sense of humor (think "female Woody Allen"!!), this is the book for you! I found Ms. Ishai to be a very talented writer, and I look forward to reading what I hope will turn out to be a series!
