She Often Found Herself Drawn To The More Ritualistic And Rigorous Judaism That Her Parents Had Abandoned To Assimilate And Become American. In College, A Chance Meeting Led Her On A Pilgrimage To Jerusalem To Study Rabbinical Texts (And Play Bluegrass Fiddle On The Street For Cash). But That Two Years Of Immersing Herself In Traditional Observance Was Only The Start Of A Journey Full Of Twists And Turns.When WeRe Born We Forget Everything Follows AliciaS Relentless, Often Embarrassing, Sometimes Enlightening Search For The Sacred In Everyday Life As She Tours America Playing With A KlezmerPunk Band, Falls In And Out Of Love, Scrapes Through The Initiations Of Motherhood, And Witnesses The BeautyAnd DangerOf Mysticism. Rabins Braids This Personal Narrative With The Hidden Stories Of Biblical Women, Uncovering A Path Of Queer Identity, Feminist Awakening, And Spiritual SelfInvention. This Lyrical, Searching Memoir Is A Meditation On Longing, Lineage, And What It Takes To Find Meaning In A Fractured World.
