Publisher's Synopsis
Minna, Wife of the Young Rabbi is a novel written by Wilhelmina Wittigschlager and published in 1905. The story revolves around Minna, the wife of a young rabbi, who struggles to find her place in the traditional Jewish community of her husband's congregation. Despite her efforts to fit in and be accepted, Minna's unconventional ideas and modern outlook often clash with the conservative views of the community. As she navigates the challenges of married life and motherhood, Minna also grapples with her own identity and desires, questioning the role of women in society and the limitations placed on them. Through her experiences, Minna learns to assert herself and carve out a path that is true to her own beliefs and values. The novel offers a nuanced portrayal of Jewish life in the early 20th century and explores themes of gender, tradition, and identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
