These essays address the question of what it means to be an American Jew trying to negotiate overlapping identities - woman, writer and urban intellectual in search of a moral way. Wisenberg's deeply ambivalent connection with the Holocaust reappears throughout these works as she struggles to find a way to live with history without being swallowed by it
