Highly recommend this read! Need convincing? Read my review for the Jewish Book Council:

“With its emo­tion­al whirl­wind of trau­ma and sur­vival, Daugh­ters of the Occu­pa­tion may not be an easy read — but it’s def­i­nite­ly a sto­ry that will stay with read­ers long after they’ve…

I'm hoping to be able to say more about how I'm planning to observe it, literarily, soon.

In the meantime: some background/other ideas. #Books #Libraries #WritingCommunity

Queen of Broccoli 🥦👑 Yardenne Greenspan Jewish Book Council Shai Davidai 1/4 sure is a lot of young, non-Zionist✡️🇺🇸s for Pope Shai to excommunicate (to say nothing of Torah Jews in toto).

No matter. Any Jew who disagrees w/ Shai Davidai can be dismissed as a token.
