Description
Set against the backdrop of the waning Ottoman Empire, Jerusalem Maiden is a powerful and poignant novel about a young woman's struggle to balance her faith with her own desires.
In 19th-century Jerusalem, Esther Kaminsky faces an impossible choice: conform to the expectations of her community or follow her heart. As she navigates the complexities of her Orthodox upbringing, Esther must confront the most fundamental question of all: who is she truly meant to be?
