I️ had a hard time not fangirling over this book. Kurshan's relationship to learning, to texts, to literature both Jewish and British utterly captured how I️ feel about books and learning. Reading this book was a kind of religious experience in itself and her ability to truly live the Torah she learned and find it in her every day was incredible. But, mostly, I️ appreciated how she gave voice to so many things that were kicking around my mind.
