Wonderful . . . It is at once an old-fashioned family saga, with plot twists worthy of George Eliot's Daniel Deronda, and, like that novel, a delicate, compassionate meditation on the inheritance and creation of religious, familial, and individual identity. --The New York Times Book Review
Summons a genuinely affecting lyrical elegiac voice, celebrating lives and ways of life as they pass into something else. -- Newsday
