Potok's main character is a young Hasidic Jew who is very talented painter from childhood on-- Asher Lev. My, what a painter he is! Of course, this presents lots of problems for him and his family and the Jewish community to which he belongs.n Ash Wednesday's blog I mentioned that I would be doing a blog on crucifixions. Recently I re-read Chiam Potok's novel: MY NAME IS ASHER LEV. I suppose besides it being the Lenten Season when we normally would think of the crucifixion, I can't help but to think of crucifixion scenes after reading Potok's novel.
