My Father's House is a memoir written by Meyer Levin, an American author and journalist. The book tells the story of Levin's search for his Jewish identity and his connection to his family's history. The narrative begins with Levin's childhood in Chicago, where he grew up in a secular Jewish family. He describes his early fascination with the stories of his ancestors and his desire to learn more about his cultural heritage. As Levin grows older, he becomes increasingly interested in Judaism and begins to explore his faith more deeply.
