'; Kitty Zeldis is one of those rare writers who doesn't just weave a story, she creates a world.'Jennie Fields, author of Lily Beach, Crossing Brooklyn Ferry, and The Age of Desire

The beloved author of Not Our Kind and The Dressmakers of Prospect Heights returns with a story of secrets, friendship, and betrayal about two young women at Vassar in the years after World War II, a powerful and moving tale of prejudice and pride that echoes the cultural and social issues of today.

Anne Bishop seems like a typical Vassar sophomoreone of a popular group of privileged WASP friends. None of the girls in her circle has any idea that she's Jewish, or that her real first name is Miriam. Pretending to be a Gentile has made life easieras Anne, she no longer suffers the snubs, snide remarks, and daily restrictions Jews face.

She enjoys her college life of teas, late-night conversations, and mixers. She turns a blind eye to the casual anti-Semitism that flourishes among her friends and classmatesafter all, it's no longer directed at her.

But her secret life is threatened when she becomes fascinated by a girl not in her crowd. Delia Goldhush is sophisticated, stylish, brilliant, and unashamedly Jewishand seems not to care that she's an outcast among the other students.

Knowing that her growing closeness with Delia would be social suicide if it were discovered, Anne keeps their friendship quiet. Delia seems to understanduntil a cruelty on Anne's part drives them apart and sends them around the world, alone and yet together.
