I.loved this book which was eloquently written. The characters are nuanced and complex. Set in New York, following World War II, we, the readers, are constantly transported between two women from different worlds. We see shades of blatant anti-Semitism, each struggling with their own burdens. Perhaps we also see that Eleanor,the Jewish character has pre-conceived ideas about the Gentile world. Sometimes we see that bridges can be crossed when misconceptions are acknowledged and healing begins. Please read this book. I do not think that you will.regret it. Kudos to the author for an extraordinary tome.
Am I the only one who noticed that this story had no ending? It just stopped, with Patricia and Eleanor at the kitchen table, and Eleanor starts to speak. And that's it. We are never to know what she said. However, I really liked the story and it was enjoyable to read, but once or twice during the reading I felt like another writer had taken over. For instance, Eleanor hardly knew how to drive (the story was set in 1947) but for some reason she decided to take Patricia's Cadillac and then drove for hours thru traffic going over the speed limit. That was so out of character and not pertinent to anything. I thought the love story between Eleanor and Tom was mostly innocent till much later in the book when it became serious. This is definitely not a romance novel, since it mostly was centered around religion. I read it in a short time, and wish the ending had had a better wrap up.
A young Jewish woman recently out of her teaching job is on her way to an interview when her cab is hit by another cab. The wealthy woman in the other cab takes the young woman home with her and introduces her to her daughter, a polio victim. The teacher and the young girl hit it off and the Jewish woman is hired by the Gentile family to tutor the daughter. The Jewish woman is told to keep it a secret that she is Jewish...thus "Not Our Kind" but the story goes both ways. I enjoyed the story.
I just read Not Our Kind and loved it! It was a compulsive read ....I couldn't stop and when I had to, I rushed back to it.... in today's environment of intolerance this is such an important story.... I loved all the attention to fashion and loved Eleanor as a character.... smart, strong, honest, open-hearted, and courageous.Zeldis drew the world of an earlier New York so well.... I could 'feel' the atmospheres of Park Avenue versus immigrant Yorktown. The language and dialogue flowed so smoothly that I was simply transported from scene to scene, chapter to chapter... the coming of age of a young Jewish woman at a time when Jews were not entirely comfortable or accepted in the USA.... many young Jews don't know anything about this era and they should!I highly recommend this novel for those who love srtong character driven fiction and want to see into yesteryear with strong echoes in today's world.
In some ways this was an interesting book. But somehow some of it seemed stilted, and artificial. And I did not appreciate the leave-the-reader-hanging ending.
This was a book I expected to identify with and really like. I too was a child of the 1950’s and remember the summer fears of polio, of Jews not being welcomed at many clubs, of girls not thinking of college educations. Unfortunately, however, these themes were trivialized.Eleanor Moskowitz, a jewess with a Vassar degree was encouraged to change her name from Moskowitz to Moss and to not expect much in the way of opportunity. Once she had had a fling with a married teacher at the private school where she taught, she was essentially not hirable.Too much of the book from that point on seemed to focus on men behaving badly, and women caught in the crossfire. That was where the book lost my interest....I did finish it, but Not Our Kind was not my kind of book.
Honestly, the post War period was one I had not really thought of in terms of anti-semitism. I think I foolishly believed that the US fought World War Two, liberated the concentration camps and then anti-semitism was over. I had no idea that such tensions existed in NYC in the late 1940's, early 1950's. This novel does a great job of exploring the tensions created by social class and religion, between two disparate groups. I'm a huge fan of the TV show Mrs. Maizel and I loved getting another view of the Jewish experience in NYC during this time period. This would be a great book group read -- and I think it would make a great movie as well.
Sad, yet I feel it's always good to understand our history. How our forefathers treated each other because of our differences when we should be looking to what we have in common. Which is just what this book did.
