"[A] clever but maddeningly nationalistic recasting of the Leo Frank case. It is a terrible work of Jewish jingoism....What we get in Mamet's little book is more drama than novel. A novel would have to show the social context that helps to explain Frank's undoing....Frank's aloneness is more than a dramatic situation. it enables Mamet to make a coarse and grandiose indictment. 'The Old Religion' accuses the American legal system, and the Gentile world, of assisting in Frank's destruction."Mamet, David is the author of 'Old Religion' with ISBN 9781585671908 and ISBN 1585671908.
