Recommended for:
hasidim, students of modern judaism
Read in February, 2007
it was "eh"....
not really an eye-opening experience for me, but i don't think i was the target audience for the book (i'm hasidic)... i think it was more written to shock and amaze the general public... presenting several portraits of modern hasidic women to just illustrate (and exploit?) the fact that we are in fact human and have lives rather similar to a lot of other folks "out there"...
