Fascinating and very moving. A really good read especially for someone who can't stomach holocaust fiction.

I plan to review it as well. But it is set in a chasidish contemporary setting. That is your beat. Its treatment of chasidish life is supposed to be sympathetic. Apparently it manages to deal with sex abuse in a modest fashion. Kirkus Reviews which is usally brutal in its reviewing gave it a great review.<br /><br />Let's see if you can demolish it or be moved to tears.Yerachmiel Lopinhttp://FrumFollies.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13084425.post-37474683930862424262010-12-29T21:03:58.256-05:002010-12-29T21:03:58.256-05:00I read this,after i thought I had enough with thes...I read this,after i thought I had enough with these typical Jewish novels,<br />beleive me, if it touched the tzig...<br />powerful stuff, let me tell youChaim Yankelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13084425.post-6569614394394536132010-12-29T20:02:29.953-05:002010-12-29T20:02:29.953-05:00I have not read the book, and I'm sure it'...I have not read the book, and I'm sure it's great, but the constant complaint I hear from young adults is that all frum books/novels seem to be on the same few tired subjects.<br /><br />Our kids are long bored with these books and have often moved on to non-appropriate books.<br /><br />Isn't there anything else to write about?Der Ruvnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13084425.post-55175086452488259082010-12-29T19:43:32.448-05:002010-12-29T19:43:32.448-05:00I mean the drawing and such...I mean the drawing and such...Hirshel Tzig - הירשל ציגhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08911009966581004937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13084425.post-62162467304101063412010-12-29T19:42:33.406-05:002010-12-29T19:42:33.406-05:00From the cover you'd think it's fiction?
