Fierce, funny, and unapologetically feminist, "JewGirl" examines what it means to be Jewish and female amid rising antisemitism and renewed assaults on women’s rights. With humor as both shield and scalpel, Maxfield blends personal narrative with cultural insight to expose how identity and power collide. "Intimate and raw, often funny.” —Literary Titan // “Crack comic storytelling.” —BookLife Reviews // “Wit, humor, and insight.” —Midwest Book Review.
