Powerful stuff. Written under a pseudonym by a member of the ultra-orthodox Hasidic sect of Judaism, it's a novelization of an amalgamation of true stories she experienced/heard about, all centering on the silence facing sexual abuse in the religion. Upsetting and enlightening.

Kmmsellers Oh, that looks like my dog, Jack. We lost him last year. He lived a good, long 14 years. Still miss him everyday. Love your pup's ears! 8y
