Disobedience

FROM THE WOMEN'S PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE POWER 'Sharp, funny and poignant' Hilary Mantel Ronit has left London and transformed her life. She has become a cigarette-smoking, wise-cracking, New York career woman, who is in love with a married man. But then Ronit's father dies, and she is called back into the very different world of her childhood, a world she thought she had left far behind. The orthodox Jewish suburb of Hendon, north London, is outraged by Ronit and her provocative ways. Ronit, too, is shocked by the confrontation with her past. And when she meets up with her childhood girlfriend Esti, she is forced to think again about what she has left behind. 'Funny, tender and insightful' Guardian 'Rich, fresh, fascinating. A wonderful novel' Sunday Times ' Alderman is one of our most surprising and delightful public intellectuals' Jon Ronson
