A Price Above Rubies - Softcover

A Price Above Rubies is set in the bustling world of New York's diamond and jewellery trade and tells the story of the struggle of a young woman, Sonia, to take control of her life amid the stifling pressures of living in a Hassidic community.
Married to an earnest young scholar, Sonia gradually gravitates away from the dutiful wifehood the community requires of her. Her brother-in-law, Sender, rekindles her childhood passion for gems and gets her working in his up-scale jewellery business - setting her on the path to her own personal fulfillment.
This volume also contains an in-depth interview in which Boaz Yakin discusses the evolution of his film-making practice.
