I had never heard of this book or the singing group The
Isaacs when I stumbled upon a friend reading this. Since I’m always looking for
a great read, my friend let me borrow it.
The story begins with Lily as an adult, having to make
difficult decisions about her aging parents. During the course of the story,
readers learn about life as the child of Holocaust survivors; as a child with
scoliosis; as a wife and mother; as a cancer survivor; as the matriarch of a
beloved, multi-award winning music group; and a covert from Judaism to
Christianity.
Any one of these stories would have made a great book. But in this small story, we get Lily’s
matter-of-fact retelling of her life’s adventures.
