Barbara Landress here explores the intricacies of fiction about Orthodox women in contemporary contexts, offering a subtle interpretation of the conflicts in Orthodox women's lives as they weave their way through daughterhood, motherhood, politics, and personal dilemmas, negotiating between tradition and modernity. Drawing on sociology, anthropology, and feminist theory, this body of Israeli women's writing is considered in comparative perspective with American feminist fiction of the 1960's and 1970's as well as with contemporary American Jewish women's writing that engages Orthodoxy. 410 0$aStudies in Orthodox Judaism 606 $aAmerican fiction$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aOrthodox Judaism 615 0$aAmerican fiction$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aOrthodox Judaism. 676 $a810.9 700 $aLandress$b Barbara Ann$01501272 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779630903321 996 $aHer glory all within$93728390 997 $aUNINA
