Content descriptions
General Note: | Originally published as Aherot by Kinneret in Israel, 2018"--Title page verso. |
Summary, etc.: | "As soon as Sheila hears the news, she knows the police will be calling. Dina Kaminer--one of Israel's preeminent feminist scholars and Sheila's oldest friend--has been found murdered, the word 'mother' carved into her forehead and a baby doll fixed to her hands. For Sheila, that word is a warning. Two decades before, she and Dina had joined a group of women who swore they would never have children. Instead, they would follow the example of the Others, women the Torah considered childless, but they saw as willingly child-free. Sheila has upheld her vow year after year, even as her friendship with Dina fell apart. But now, as more women turn up dead, each transformed into a mother against her will, Sheila must decide if she's made the right choice . . . and who might want to make her pay the ultimate price"-- Provided by publisher |
