“A journey through the lives of young Eastern European Jews that's not to be missed.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
How do we come to be who we are spiritually? How does our political and social environment influence our development of self?
A young American author immerses herself in modern Jewish Hungary. The twenty-one stories she shares will make you laugh, make you cry, and make you want to be your own best self. Somehow I Am Different provides an opportunity to connect in a world that otherwise begs us to stand alone. This book serves as a reminder that in spite of the factors working against us, we have the power to stand up and make a difference.
