Her Face in the Mirror

Jewish Women on Mothers and Daughters
Edited by Faye Moskowitz
(336 Pages)Publisher: FS&G, 1994

Relationships between mothers and daughters are exceptionally complex for all women. Her Face in the Mirror explores this most difficult and affirming relationship in the lives of Jewish women through poems, stories, and personal essays. Daughters, many of them first- and second-generation Americans, write of frustration with what they see as their mothers' limited lives; their mothers write of fears for their daughters whose lives seem so different from their own. For many the relationship is shaped by the feeling of being an outsider as a Jew in America and a woman in Judaism and it is always informed by the collective memory of the Holocaust.
