Full Description
Bread and Fire is about the everyday lives of Jewish women and the
struggles and aspirations, failings and triumphs of their spiritual
endeavors.
This book asks: What does it mean to be a Jewish woman today? What
does Jewish tradition offer to modern women who are looking for
practical ways to bring spirituality and meaning to their lives and
the lives of their loved ones?
The women whose writings appear in this book span a wide range of
ages, backgrounds, perspectives and professions. In her own way, each
one reveals G-d as an anchoring force in her life: from the birthing
room to the boardroom, cleaning in the kitchen or scrubbing up for
surgery. In places as far apart as Jerusalem, Washington, DC and
southern India, these women help us find the sacred within the
apparently mundane.
Readers will find themselves laughing, crying and gaining reassurance
and strength as they come face-to-face with these women – women just
like them – who are moving forward in the ancient quest to find G-d in
the everyday.
