About the book
Anthology of personal stories, written by authors who've all shared the experience of being raised in a half-Jewish home. Though each essay is distinct and the experiences are vastly different, the half-Jewish narratives all describe the experience of growing upwithout a streamlined identity, unsure of community or religious direction. Now the Jewish community is turning over on itself, scrambling for ways to include and address the needs of an ever-growing half-Jewish population, after 20 years of alienating language and exclusion.
