À propos de cet audio
Beyond the Pale - winner of the Lambda Literary Award - tells the stories of two Jewish women living through times of darkness and inhumanity in the early 20th century, capturing their undaunted love and courage in luminous and moving prose. The richly textured novel details Gutke Gurvich's odyssey from her apprenticeship as a midwife in a Russian shtetl to her work in the suffrage movement in New York.
Interwoven with her tale is that Chava Meyer, who was attended by Gurvich at her birth and grew up to survive the pogrom that took the lives of her parents. Throughout the story, historical background plays a large part: Jewish faith and traditions, the practice of midwifery, the horrific conditions in prerevolutionary Russia and New York sweatshops, and the determined work of labor unionists and suffragists.

An incredible book.
Truly a wonderful, moving story with characters I could really connect to. Be prepared to care about these humans, to feel aroused by the intimacy explored and to weep with them for their losses and the losses of so many. I really appreciated this look into a crucial historical moment of horrific injustice that was ubiquitous and continues today.
