Women, Converts & Azerbaijanis Need Not Apply

By P.A. Moses

When Andrea Lewy, a Chinese girl adopted by a Jewish family, begins her Fulbright year in Germany, she expects to have a good time, improve her German and write about contemporary Antisemitism; what she doesn't expect is to become embroiled in a corrupt Russian mafia-like synagogue. WOMEN, CONVERTS AND AZERBAIJANIS NEED NOT APPLY is set in a fictionalized synagogue in modern day Germany. The narrative weaves together with poignant hilarity the xenophobia, Russian-mafia influences, death threats in community meetings and fist fights in services that ridiculously but truthfully make up some of the every-day reality of Jewish communities in Germany today.Through Andrea's humor-filled first person narrative, we are appalled by, confused about and fall in love with these real people facing the challenges of reengaging in Judaism after three generations of Stalinism.
