Rachel Berghash's lyrical, impressionistic memoir charts her relationship with her homeland during a lifelong journey of selfdiscovery, beginning with a child'seye view of the city's sacred mysteries, her family's religious orthodoxy, and the underlying kinship between Israelis and Palestinians. At eighteen, she serves in the Israeli army, later attends the Rubin Academy of Music, and works as a secretary at the Israeli Parliament and The Jerusalem Post. When she marries an American artist, she moves to New York City and raises a family. Living outside the homeland she loves and having abandoned her adherence to religious strictures, she shuttles between her original and adopted countries. Touching on issues of emigration, exile, family, and reawakening to religion, this book shows how Berghash builds a new house of the spirit, drawing on the foundation of her past while embracing her life's new possibilities.
