Malkah Shapiro grew up in Poland, the daughter of a noted Hasidic
master. The Rebbe's Daughter tells her story: a rare glimpse of the
world of the Hasidic Jew in pre-World War I Eastern Europe. This is
a learned text, filled with biblical, talmudic, kabbalistic, and
hasidic allusions and direct quotations, demonstrating that, in
constrast to the stereotype of traditional Jewish girls' education
at the turn of the century, the author was blessed with a thorough
education in Judiac classics. Shapiro's tale, translated and
presented in Rabbi Polen's capable hands, is poetic and sensitive,
providing a rich and inviting history for its readers.
