When 20-year-old student J. S. Margot took a tutoring job in 1987,
little did she know it would open up an entire world. In the
family's Orthodox Jewish household she would encounter endless
rules - 'never come on a Friday, never shake hands with a man' -
and quirks she had not seen before: tiny tubes on the doorposts,
separate fridges for meat and dairy products. Her initial response
was puzzlement and occasionally anger, but as she taught the
children and fiercely debated with the family, she also began to
learn from them. Full of funny misunderstandings and unexpected
connections, Mazel Tov is a heartwarming, provocative and
disarmingly honest memoir of clashing cultures and unusual
friendships - and of how, where adults build walls, sometimes only
children can dissolve them.
