Young Adult
Growing up in her parentsβ crazy hippie household on a tiny island off the coast of Boston, Julesβs imaginative sense of humor is the weapon she wields to dodge household chaos. But somewhere between routine discipline with horsewhips, gun-waving gambling debt collectors, and LSD-laced breakfast cereal adventures, tragedy strikes with the death of her younger brotherβa blow from which Jules may never fully recover. Julesβ story alternates with that of her Grandfather Samuel, a man with a sad story of his own. Samuel, once called Szaja, is an orthodox Jew who lived through the murderous Ukranian pogroms of the 1920s and the Majdanek Death Campβbut whose survival came at a price thatβs haunted him for years.
