The Man Who Never Slept [Hardcover]
By: Rabbi Michael Yaakov Bitton

Product Description
The challenges and triumphs Rabbi Mordechai Pegrimansky (1904-1949).
He could never stop learning Torah - so he didn't sleep.
In the ghetto he was concerned that his food might be stolen - so he didn't eat.
He was unable to keep to any schedule - so he learned and taught around the clock.
He could never sit down in the yeshiva - because when he walked throught the door, the whole Beis Midrash ran to him, demanding a shi'ur right away.
So he stood on the steps and gave it.
Even the Rogatchover Gaon praised his acuity - so he walked out immediately, not wanting to embarrass others who were present.
Faced with the Sho'ah, "he didn't see Germans, he saw pesukim."
He was a super-genius that few could comprehend. But when called on to be the spiritual father of dozens of orphans afte rhte War, he lowered himself to the level of each child and spoke the language that he could understand. He was "not part of this world" yet his heart overflowed with love. Sixty years after his departure, everyone who ever met him remembers him. Now it is time to tell his story in full.
