At the Feet of Mothers, Paperback / softback Book

At the Feet of Mothers Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Joseph Schneider grows up in a Cherokee-Jewish family in the Smokey mountains of North Carolina.

He dreams to be a cook on the biggest ship there is in the world but his attachment to his mother Rachel and his rootedness to the little mountain village keep him from moving on.

When his mother falls ill she reveals she stole him from a Palestinian girl Aliya in the 80s when she volunteered at a hospital in Gaza.

Joseph refuses to know anything more about his biological mother, but later when Rachel dies, Joseph honors his promise to her and embarks on a painful pilgrimage to the holy land, a walk in the footsteps of his American mother and a search for Aliya.
