Lost Love: The Untold Story of Henrietta Szold : Unpublished Diary and Letters

Rating:
Summary: This book is wonderful. Anyone even slightly romantic will l
Review: The primary significance of this work and we are deeply in debtto the fine editing of Baila Shargel, is that it presents to thepublic for the first time, Henrietta Szold the great writer. We come back to a time when letters were still carefully crafted; we bask in the warmth and honesty of her prose. We are continually stunned by her brilliance and begin to mourn not her loss or Ginzberg's but ours. It is we the Jewish people who have lost a great writer to the service of others, to the drudgery of editing which is so often women's work. This work is bound to become a classic. It shows yet another side of this very heroic woman who serves as a model for us all. More available at JCN!! END
