Richard Lazaroff, now retired from pediatric practice for six years, has released his second book, Illumination, this one is a piece of historical fiction taking place in South Haven, Michigan, once the “Catskills of the Midwest.” It is a four-generational story exploring the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of American Jews as they face the lure of assimilation and secular success, the pain of antisemitism, and the search for a spiritual grounding in the modern world.
