The Holy Thief

A Con Man's Journey from Darkness to Light

De: Mark Borovitz, Alan Eisenstock

Narrado por: BJ Harrison

Mark Borovitz was a mobster, gangster, con man, gambler, thief, and a drunk. He's seen it all. In this inspiring memoir, he takes you on a journey from the streets to discovering his soul in a prison cell.

When Mark was 14, his father died and his world came crashing down. He stole, gambled, and drank, beginning a 29-year life of crime, all the while trying to be the good son, the good brother, the good boy, but his life only spun more out of control until the mob put a hit out on him.

After his release from prison, the drinking and thieving continued until, at the edge of oblivion, he experienced a moment of true divine intervention, a startling revelation that saved his life.

Mark Borovitz proved that you can change your life - profoundly. He is now the rabbi at Beit T'Shuvah in Los Angeles, the House of Return, a rehabilitation facility for addicts of all kinds.

The Holy Thief is the remarkable memoir of an amazing man. It is a true-life gangster story, a passionate love story, and a case of study in redemption. Regardless of your faith, you will find his story tragic, funny, uplifting, and inspirational.

Great story. Well written and performed.

Well written and performed. The book reads as fiction but it's not. What a wonderful story of redemption.

Incredible story well told

Definitely worth listening to. Incredible story. Only objection is mispronunciation of Hebrew words by reader.

Quite interesting

I enjoyed hearing how a person who seemed so down on their luck get uplifted and find success.

Awesome - inspirational

Great read, Good character development. I very much e n j o y e d it.

the raw truth

the story held my interest and attention. Although the story theme is Jewish it is applicable to anyone.

Story was amazing

Love it all a true story of redemption! Finished with a huge good feeling inside!!

You don't expect to hear F-bombs over and over

I wish I could return this awful book. The foul language was over the top. Like many movies, it is probably a good story, but I'll never know because of the language.

Waist of time

Very ridiculous and useless book. I returned it and got my refund, but waisted my time to this BS.
