About this ebook
The year is 1991. The Cold War has raged on for five decades. The USSR, however, has shown signs of crumbling. It is clear that reform must take place, or it will cease to exist. Meanwhile, life goes on. Darius Wipf, a professional hockey player from Canada, has gone to Moscow to have his knee surgically repaired by the world's foremost orthopedic surgeon. As part of his recuperation, he is allowed to practice with the Soviet national hockey team, which is preparing for the World Cup in Lvov. Soviet hardliners execute a coup against Gorbachev and Darius finds himself enmeshed in the middle of it.

But see, the thing is...that she's a witch -- and this year she's having her Bat Mitzvah! ------------------------------------ This is the premise of The Witch of Woodland, the latest novel from Laurel Snyder. Snyder is a Sidney Taylor Award-winning author who has written over a dozen works of fiction. Over the years, her books have come to increasingly emphasize Jewish themes and storylines. She joins Dan Libenson and Lex Rofeberg for a conversation about why she believes in magic, her ongoing effort to overcome "Jewish Imposter-Syndrome," and the ways in which works of fiction can shape our Jewish world. This episode is the 3rd in an ongoing mini-series of Judaism Unbound episodes, honoring Bat Mitzvah's 100th anniversary, and exploring the present and future of B Mitzvah ("B Mitzvah" is a term for Jewish coming-of-age ceremonies, across the gender spectrum).
