Celia is a 70-year-old New York artist and educator whose grown daughter Sharon has escaped the pace and expectations of Jewish east coast life to live in a tumble-down cabin in British Columbia. Following a personal crisis, Celia braves a visit to the wilderness, where she and Sharon become involved with an idiosyncratic Jewish community made up of people one doesn’t meet in Manhattan. What this community lacks in Yiddishkeit it makes up for in heart and spirit.

Zoe is a sixteen-year-old girl caught between visions of idealistic Jewish heroism, like that of Hannah Senesh, and the enticing freedoms of the American counterculture of the 1970’s. Surrounded by a diverse collection of Jews who’ve ended up in the Connecticut suburbs—Holocaust survivors, Israeli expatriates, and former New Yorkers—she must figure out a future that will embrace everything she loves and admires.
“The complexity of this story unravels to a poignant climax with a page-turning conclusion that will leave you wanting more. The author…illuminates the realistic issues young adults dealt with forty years ago that unfortunately still prevail today.” -VOYA, Voice of Youth Advocates
