Let’s be honest life is messy, people are complicated, and yes, we’re all a little crazy. That’s what David Schecter explores in I Am Crazy… and You Are Too! This isn’t just a book—it’s a wake-up call.
In the first part, Schecter asks you to take a hard look at yourself your fears, habits, ego, and choices. It’s real and honest, with no sugarcoating. Then, he looks at the world around us our systems, culture, and institutions like government, religion, and schools.
But instead of blaming others, he asks you to think for yourself. Use common sense. Take responsibility. Look past the noise. This book won’t comfort you it’ll challenge you. If you want truth with a bit of sarcasm, this is for you.
The narrative delves into how art—particularly music and personal storytelling—can heal trauma, foster empathy, and preserve memory. The protagonist’s deep engagement with Jewish music, especially through the character of Cantor Leibele Waldman, illustrates how art becomes a vessel for spiritual continuity, emotional catharsis, and cultural resilience.
The book highlights the importance of passing down cultural and familial narratives from one generation to another. Through David’s exploration of his family’s Holocaust experiences and the legacy of Jewish cantorial music, it underscores how memory shapes identity and how storytelling ensures that the voices of the past remain alive in the present.
A central tension in the book is the protagonist’s struggle with and eventual return to faith. The story thoughtfully addresses spiritual doubt, religious heritage, and the personal journey toward understanding one’s place in a larger cultural and theological history. Music becomes the conduit for reconnecting with God and self.
