Nathan Englander, author of For the Relief of Unbearable Urges and The Ministry of Special Cases, is working on a translation of the Haggadah. In an op-ed recently published in the New York Times, he offers readers a tantalizing glimpse:
Were it our mouths were filled with a singing like the sea,
And our tongues awash with song, as waves-countless,
And our lips to lauding, as the skies are wide,
And our eyes illumined like the sun and the moon...
There's more but we'll have to wait.
lovely.
