In her book of essays "The Last Gift of Time" Carolyn Heilbrun talked about how women's stories of their lives provide the inspiration to future readers, who may "catch courage" from these books and go on to enlarge their own lives and experiences. Heilbrun called the authors of these books "unmet friends."The arc of Deborah Feldman's experience is very much the one that Carolyn Heilbrun described. Feldman read Austen and other women who moved beyond their circle and achieved more than their families and environments could ever have predicted. Later Feldman read memoirs and these provided her with not only the courage to expand her own world, but also to learn more and develop the skills to document her experience in this memoir.Feldman was destined to leave. Her mother had already departed; her father was retarded or crazy or both; she had no siblings or strong family ties, other than to her grandparents, and by they time she makes the break they are old and she is already living far from Williamsburg. Her husband has received no education, and has no desire or ability to reach beyond the circumscribed existence that has been delineated for him. Deborah leaves behind virtually nothing of value: she takes with her the only thing precious to her: her son. But this is not to undermine what she has accomplished. Her book does an excellent job of showing the reader how closely monitored the Hasidic children are. It was perhaps a greater break, a larger miracle, that Deborah Feldman, as a young girl, took that first step into the library where the books in English were, than that she eventually left the community.For what she is trying to do here, she writes well enough. Well enough indeed that I was compelled to read this almost in a single sitting. Deborah Feldman talks about the role of fantasies in her growing sense that she could and must have more, and I have one for her and her book: I like to imagine that there are copies of Unorthodox circulating all over Williamsburg. I hope there are copies under the mattresses of so many of the young girls there, and that as each copy is confiscated, ten more will enter the community. Deborah Feldman will be an "unmet friend" to many, many of the young men and women. It is high time.
I liked it, but something, not sure exactly what, kept me from LOVING it. I'm Jewish, and have ALWAYS been FASCINATED by the Chasidic people and their culture. Though I grew up less than an hour away from this community, we're MILLIONS of miles apart.As someone who grew up at times bored, annoyed, and bordering on "rejection" of my own (much more liberal/watered down) religion, a group that adheres this closely/narrowly to its cultural and religious practices is a source of wonder, disbelief, and (occasionally, I confess) annoyance. And THAT sums up (in part) how I felt about this book... Maybe I'm (not so secretly) envious of someone who was born into this fascinating world, some sort of "grass is greener on the other side of the fence thing," or maybe the author just didn't give me enough reason to identify with her, root for her, or even care too deeply whether she stayed or left "the fold."I was not influenced by the HUGE controversy that seems to surround this book. She told HER story, and it's not even close to mine, so I'd never second-guess her or accuse her of stretching (or inventing) the truth. I really looked forward to this book, and I wish the author and her son the very best in their new lives, but I was less "scandalized" than "minimally surprised" by how things worked out for her, and found myself really wanting so much more. I'll keep an eye out for her follow-up book, but keep my expectations in check...
Deborah Feldman relates a fascinating story of her personal journey from a captive existence with one ultra extreme segment of Judaism to a freer existence without the severe restraints. It could be a similar story to hard core, ultra fundamentalist young Christians escaping their personal prisons to bright young women growing up under extremist Islamic Sharia traditions.So Deborah's story presents universal appeal. It is not unlike, but much less harsh, my growing up in a family where WE ALL (my mother, father and brother) broke from Orthodox Judaism and transitioned to Traditional Reform Judaism. Religion can be inspiring, healing personally and to the world in general, and Non-Judgmental. A good movie that illustrates this dichotomy is "Loving Leah" (Hallmark/Amazon).I hope Deborah remains true to,her Jewish heritage and roots. If she lives in New York, she should visit the great Central Synagogue and listen to Rabbi Angela Burgdahl. A female, a cantor/rabbi and descended from Korean royalty.
Anyone intrigued by how insane religions can be will love this book. It's unreal. My heartstrings were pulled when she wrote how these people exist because of the millions of Jews exterminated in the Holocaust. I don't remember Shulem Deen's book touching on that.
