A Novel by S. W. Leicher

ISBN #978-1-940189-22-2
Paperback - 312 pages

In America, we’re good at dividing ourselves into tribes–into “insiders” and “outsiders”–based on race, background and beliefs. But what happens when a person is an outsider within her own tribe? Serach Gottesman, the mathematically-gifted eldest daughter of a rigidly Orthodox-Jewish Boro Park family and Paloma Rodriguez, the street-smart Bronx-bred daughter of a neglectful Latina immigrant mother, seek broader vistas within a relationship that is forbidden by both their communities. Love provides them ballast, but they find that some cultural bonds grip tight and some wounds run deep.
