pickA riveting memoir - from her earliest memories Abby born into a Hasidic Dynasty knew she was not whom her parents believed her to be. Abby, known as Yisroel Avrom born a male and raised to be a Torah scholar knew her soul and physical body did not align. She also knew that her life held bigger promises than just sitting and learning the Talmud, a collection of writings that covers the full gamut of Jewish law and tradition. 👇🏼
Cinfhen This book, her journey from male to female and from leaving the insular world of Hasidic Jewry is full of heartbreak and newfound joy. I was mesmerized. 1y
