From Library Journal "This book is a sampler, and within its pages Jewish American and Canadian women have contributed pieces of writing that, like pieces of embroidery, illustrate their lives," assert editors Siegel and Cole (Jewish Women in Therapy: Seen But Not Heard, Haworth, 1991) of this collection of personal essays. Contributors include a wide-ranging group of Jewish women?young and old; conservatives and liberals; converts; lesbians and heterosexuals?and all attempt to "break the silence" traditionally expected of Jewish women. While embroidered samplers may include an assortment of stitches, there is usually a cohesiveness of style that lends a sense of unity to the piece. Unfortunately, the tone of these essays is so uneven?from academic-with-footnotes to casual memoir?that the collection lacks an overall unity and will be hard to recommend to specific groups of readers.?Marcia G. Welsh, Guilford Free Lib., Ct.Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc.
