Wasteland is a story of Jacob Braunowitz, a young Jewish man who, tortured by self-doubts and nightmare fears, turns his back on his heritage, his home, and even his name. Guided by a radical sister who is ‘half like a man and half like a woman’ and a wise and compassionate psychiatrist, Jacob makes the ardous journey back to his authentic identity, his family, and his people.
