About this book

"Neither Jew nor Greek: A Story of Jewish Social Life" by Violet Guttenberg is a fictional narrative written in the early 20th century. The story delves into themes of Jewish identity, social expectations, and interfaith relationships, following the lives of characters navigating their cultural and personal conflicts within the Jewish community in England. The protagonist, Celia, is introduced as a sweet and talented Jewish girl whose experiences unfold against the backdrop of both traditional customs and modern societal challenges. The opening portion sets the stage for Celia's journey, introducing her marriage into a wealthy Jewish family through a marriage of convenience, as well as her relationships with various characters, including the charming artist Herbert Karne and ambitious David Salmon. The narrative explores important themes such as the pressures of societal expectations and the complexities of love and faith, particularly through Celia's interactions with men of differing backgrounds and her struggle to reconcile her upbringing with her personal desires.
