The Romance Reader by Pearl Abraham
4.0
The Romance Reader by Pearl Abraham is a book that was brought to my attention recently, while reading Unorthodox by Deborah Feldman.
Unorthodox is the true story of Deborah’s “escape” from a strict Hasidic (Jewish) community. One of her inspirations for leaving was Pearl Abraham’s novel, The Romance Reader.
And it’s interesting, too, because The Romance Reader really is the fictional version of Unorthodox.
The title is sooo misleading: this book is NOT a romance.
