Description

This flip book features two separate novellas: In Sickness and In Health: Lily’s most cherished goal in life has always been to be “normal,” so as an adult she has painstakingly constructed a “normal” life for herself, with family, friends, and career. But her need to keep hidden her invisible disability, due to its stigma and her shame, now threatens to destroy everything she has worked so hard for. Yom Kippur in a Gym: Five isolated strangers in a synagogue on Yom Kippur – a day of intense reflection and soul-searching – are each struggling with a major personal crisis, when unexpectedly they are thrown together by an emergency that, in one hour, changes all their lives forever.
