Perfect for fans of Unorthodox, this emotionally haunting story--one of both humor and depth--is of sexual abuse within the secluded orthodox Jewish community in Brooklyn. Inside the closed community of Brooklyn, where most Chassidim live, the rules of life are determined by an ancient script written thousands of years before--and abuse has never been a part of it. But when thirteen-year-old Gittel learns her best friend has been sexually assaulted by one of her own family members, her the adults in her community try to convince Gittel, and themselves, that nothing happened. Forced to remain silent, Gittel begins to question everything she was raised to believe. A nuanced exploration of a complex world, one of understanding and horror, this story illuminates the conflict between yesterday's traditions and today's reality.
