“Would you recognize your soul’s complement in another? Beyond the
bliss of actually finding your soulmate, there is a belief that the
universe hinges on predetermined people finding their other half,
their bashert, to maintain cosmic balance.
In BASHERT (Bellrock Press; February 14, 2017) author,
screenwriter, director and former rabbi Herb Freed immerses us in
the heady intoxication and thunderous losses of what it really
means to be bashert.
Dan Sobol and Marion Gladstone meet by chance at a screenwriter’s
event in Los Angeles. He’s a rabbi turned director known for his
cinematic television commercials; she’s a writer and film editor
who is recovering from a tabloid-headline screaming Hollywood
divorce. From the moment Marion hears Dan’s voice, she knows—and so
does he. It’s bashert.”
