Herman Wouk - one of the most popular modern writers - was born in 1915 in the United States of America. His parents are immigrants from Russia. For the third novel - "Mutiny on the ship" - Herman Wouk was awarded the Pulitzer Prize - the US National Literary Prize. Herman Wouk wrote eight novels and three plays, which brought him worldwide fame. His books have been translated into fifteen languages, including Turkish and Japanese. They have been published and are being published in millions of copies. The Russian translation of Herman Wouk's book "This is my God" stands somewhat apart in his work. Without falling into excessive scientific imagery, the writer solves the most difficult task in it: with the ease characteristic of his style, he gives a broad and accurate picture of the history, attitude, customs, rituals, and lifestyle in general of one of the most ancient peoples of the world. Given the contradictory opinions on many of the issues raised, the author nowhere and in no way imposes his point of view on the reader. The book will undoubtedly be of interest to anyone who wants to expand their knowledge of the history of the spiritual culture of mankind.
