New York Times bestselling author
The debut novel from Naomi Alderman – author of The Power, winner of the Baileys Women's Prize for Fiction 2017.
Now a major motion picture starring Rachel Weisz and Rachel McAdams.
In a cramped synagogue in north-west London, the eminent elderly rabbi passes away. On the other side of the Atlantic, his estranged daughter, Ronit, hears of her father's death and returns to London for the funeral. She has not returned home in 15 years.
Ronit looks forward to a week or two of revisiting old friends, perhaps settling old scores. But she finds the community she grew up in a more confusing place than she'd anticipated. Particularly when she is unexpectedly reunited with Esti, her childhood sweetheart, who has taken a very different path in life ...
Disobedience is a hugely enjoyable and warm-hearted portrayal of characters caught between two worlds, and a wise exploration of sexuality, tolerance and faith.
'Move over Zadie Smith.'
Elle
'A revealing glimpse into a closed community and offers serious ethical questions to ponder. An excellent choice for women's book clubs.'
Booklist
