The romance reader - Pearl Abraham
Rachel Benjamin is the rabbi's eldest daughter. She is expected to set an example for her brothers and sisters. She must wear thick tights with seams; she must never wear a bathing suit in public; she is not to read novels in English. But Rachel does read forbidden books; she starts to wear sheer stockings and to take classes to become a lifeguard. As the prospect of an arranged marriage draws nearer, Rachel is torn between the opportunity it offers to leave her family and the realization it is not a genuine escape.Sociale Roman, New York (stad), Joods Milieu2004, 272 pagina's, vanaf ca. 15 jaar, ISBN: 9001558771Ik ga "The romance reader" lezen!
