Description:
When Chana Landau Begins To Teach at Manhattan's Harvey Milk High School, she leaves the protection of her familiar, safe world -- a traditional Orthodox Jewish enclave in Brooklyn -- for a school that embodies everything she has been forbidden to experience. In a hostile classroom filled with sexually "different" teens, street kids, and drug addicts, Chana's one support is Flamboyant. Flamboyant is a fifteen-year-old prostitute, who claims to be half-Jewish and is an accomplished writer. When appearances prove to be deceptive, the inexperienced teacher must confront a profound crisis in her faith in God and the principles of her religion.
