Overview

The Get is the story of a woman's journey through love, divorce, spirituality, empowerment and, finally, self-discovery. It focuses on the real-life experiences of a modern woman who is pressured to participate in an ancient Orthodox ritual that ends her thirty-year marriage. Initially fearful of participating in an ancient ceremony that requires her to stand alone before a panel of emotionally distant Orthodox rabbis, she ultimately comes to believe that the get is truly a profound emotional experience. With the assistance of two very special spiritual leaders, she confronts her insecurities and fears, and emerges victorious. This beautifully written book details a process that has rarely been told before. Readers of all faiths will be fascinated by this personal and spiritual quest from loss to abundance. Readers will be propelled through an experience of anxiety and intensity until the moment of finality is reached, when a single piece of parchment-representing a life together-is dropped into the author's hands and cut.
