It is their story, together with her love of Jewish mythology and fantasy, which inspired her to write her debut novel, The Sisters of the Winter Wood.

A simply gorgeous book in every sense."-Louisa Morgan, author of A Secret History of Witches "An enthralling debut."-Lavie Tidhar, author of World Fantasy Award winner Osama "This dark fairy tale about sisterly love and Jewish strength and courage, set against the backdrop of a deep and deadly winter forest, will haunt me for a long time. A powerful, emotional debut."-Julie C. Dao, author of Forest of a Thousand Lanterns "An incredible achievement - a rich literary fairytale, with all the cadences of the folk stories of old. The kind of book that Neil Gaiman and Naomi Novik might have together cooked up, it's far too easy to get lost in the forests between the pages of this book and disappear for days on end."-Robert Dinsdale, author of The Toymakers "This lyrical fairy tale of two sisters in a small village in Ukraine is a book to be savored rather than devoured." -Library Journal "A compelling narrative in a magical setting that felt completely real, and the complex characters and plot twists enticed me to keep turning the pages."-Historical Novel Society "The Sisters of the Winter Wood is a vivid, fascinating, excellently drawn story o [url] => https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/16000434 [pa] => [publisher] => Hachette Audio [purchaseModel] => INSTANT )
