“Osnat and Her Dove is a rare work, one whose lit­er­ary and artis­tic elo­quence are as out­stand­ing as its inspir­ing les­son that study­ing, teach­ing, and lead­ing are not the exclu­sive province of men… This remark­able book con­veys both Osnat’s unusu­al life, full of con­tra­dic­tion, and the truth about women’s poten­tial. When encour­aged to flour­ish, Osnat and oth­ers like her can heal the world.” — Jewish Book Council
