![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Jewish Daughter Diaries wittily captures the essence of twenty-seven Jewish mothers through short stories contributed by prominent Jewish writers and performers about their moms, and each author's unique voice, whether sarcastic or humorous or anything in between, comes through clearly in each story. A Jewish mother is so much more than an overbearing, overprotective, and deeply loving woman it seems almost characteristically Jewish that each Jewish mother proudly puts her own flair and character into her typically Jewish persona. The stories in The Jewish Daughter Diaries edited and compiled by Rachel Ament helped me understand that while there is a stereotypical "Jewish mother" mold, this mold could only ever be the skeleton of a real Jewish mother. ![]()
