Attorney’s new book selected for prestigious Detroit Jewish Book Fair

Kemp Klein attorney and shareholder Alan A. May’s new book, “The Journey,” has been selected for inclusion in the Detroit Jewish Book Fair, which promotes the global art of Jewish storytelling. The 71st Book Fair will run from Nov. 1-13 at The Jewish Community Center.

May’s book chronicles the dangers and glories of two friends’ experiences in post-World War II Detroit as they face antisemitism, divided loyalties and challenged value systems. His previous novels include “Article XII” and “Sons of Adam.”

May is widely published in the field of probate law, contributing articles to the Michigan Bar Journal, NAWCC Bulletin, and the Michigan Probate and Estate Planning Journal. He blogs frequently about probate and baseball. 

In addition, he has appeared in Martindale-Hubbell’s Register of Preeminent lawyers 30 times, in Michigan Super Lawyers since 2007, in the Best Lawyers in America since 2010, and has been named one of the top attorneys in Michigan by the New York Times.
