Dreams of an Insomniac
Dreams of an Insomniac: Jewish Feminist Essays, Speeches, and Diatribes | Irena Klepfisz
3 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
In a framework that is Jewish, lesbian, feminist and class-conscious, Klepfisz speaks out against the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, anti-Semitism and homophobia, compulsory motherhood, and the commercialization of the Holocaust, and for the strengthening and preservation of secular Yiddish culture in the US and the joy of doing creative work. Some of the essays have been previously published. Published by The Eighth Mountain Press, 624 Southeast 29th Avenue, Portland, OR 97214-3026. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Yes!!!!! Yes yes yes yes yes yes a thousand times yes! Even as a convert, I'm learning so freaking much every day. I sometimes don't realize how much I don't know. And I can't talk to my secular friends about the struggles I face, but I also know that sometimes my Jewish friends talk and I have no idea what they're saying. I'm always learning.
