Featured Fiction by Jewish Women

This just in from 614, the ezine of the Hadassah-Brandeis Institute, and its editor, Michelle Cove:

"For our 2nd annual issue on Jewish books, we wanted to find young Jewish women who were writing about themes we haven't seen dozens of times. This is why you'll find mention in this issue of cowboys, Madame Bovary, a modern day Jewish heiress, a 12-year-old Iranian, Jewish spies, and a heroic German baker. Rather than post book reviews, we talked to the authors behind these stories and asked them about the inspirations for their books, and also what they think about today's Jewish fiction in general. Meet Joanna Hershon, Tova Mirvis, Laurie Gwen Shapiro, Dara Horn, Jenna Blum, and Gina Nahai."
