In the 1990s and early 2000s there was a flowering of feminist critical writing about Hebrew and Yiddish women poets. Schachter's book picks up where these various studies left off, focusing on important, neglected works of fiction that resisted nationalist, religious structures and conventional forms. Schachter attends to the details and experimental artistry of the writers' fiction, widening the lens to consider as well how the works speak to and respond to broader social and cultural aspects of modernism. --Wendy Zierler, author of And Rachel Stole the Idols: The Emergence of Modern Hebrew Women's Writing
