As he lay in the hospital recovering, he kept wondering: Why had two younger men died while he, who had already lived his life fully, survived? \u003cbr\u003e The question drove this son of a Russian-Jewish ragman to a search for his roots and on a long journey of self-discovery -- a quest not only for the meaning of life and his own relationship with God, but for his own identity as a Jew. Through the study of the Bible, Kirk Douglas found a new spirituality and purpose. His newfound faith deeply enriched his relationship with his own children and taught him -- a man who had always been famously demanding and impatient -- to listen to others and, above all, to hear his own inner voice. \u003cbr\u003e Told with warmth, wit, much humor, and deep passion, \u003ci\u003eClimbing the Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e is inspirational in the very best sense of the word.","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43405131841791,"sku":"9780684865843","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_b748bb77-3e71-4d09-b62c-b8564179e199.jpg?v=1774450976","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780684865843","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
