Let’s not bring the secular writers into this. I believe that there can be quality lit without the raw language and scenes (and errors, even if unintentional). Sun Inside Rain is a case in point. Dual Discovery was outstanding, and for younger readers, The Stars Will Guide You was great. Meir Uri Gottesman is a compelling writer and a rollicking read. This short list is not meant to be definitive. (Avner Gold is fantastic though I hope his new emphasis on the history and gedolim will not be at the expense of the story; I wonder how many other readers wanted more of a glimpse of Sebastian’s later life. But halevai other authors should come anywhere close.)
