On a typical weekday, men of the Beverly-La Brea Orthodox community wake up early, beginning their day with Talmud reading and prayer at 5: 45am, before joining Los Angeles\' traffic.
He is coauthor of Abductive Analysis: Theorizing Qualitative Research, also published by the U.
About the Author: Iddo Tavory is assistant professor of sociology at New York University.
At the close of Tavory\'s fascinating ethnography, we come away with a better understanding of the dynamics of social worlds, identity, interaction and self-not only in Beverly-La Brea, but in society at large.
Again and again, they find themselves summoned both into social Life and into their identity as Orthodox Jews.
People are reminded of who they are as they are called upon by organizations, prayer quorums, the nods of strangers, whiffs of unkosher food floating through the street, or the rarer Anti-Semitic remarks.
To be Orthodox is to be constantly called into being.
But to sustain this life, as Tavory shows, is not simply a moral decision they make.
Just blocks from West Hollywood\'s nightlife, the Orthodox community thrives next to the impure sights, sounds, and smells they encounter every day.
In Summoned, Tavory takes readers to the heart of the exhilarating-at times exhausting-Life of the Beverly-La Brea Orthodox community.
Life in this community, as Iddo Tavory describes it, is palpably thick with the twin pulls of observance and sociality.
And so the week goes, culminating as the sabbatical observances on Friday afternoon stretch into Saturday evening.
Neighborhood fixtures like Jewish schools and synagogues are always after more involvement; evening classes and prayers pull them in; the streets themselves seem to remind them of who they are.
But even for the majority of men who spend their days in the world of gentiles, Religious Life constantly reasserts itself.
Those who work "Jewish jobs"-teachers, kosher supervisors, or rabbis-will stay enmeshed in the Orthodox world throughout the workday.
