In Uncovered, Leah Lax explains to her report - start as a young teen who kept her liberal, secular home for life as a Hasidic Jew and finishing as a 40-something girl who must abandon the one world she's known for 30 years to be able to accomplish personal flexibility. In understated, crystalline prose, Lax details her encounters with arranged relationship, fundamentalist beliefs, and motherhood during her years with the Hasidim and explores how her creative, intimate, and religious longings simmered beneath the surface throughout her time there. The first memoir to tell of a gay girl who spent years in the Hasidic fold, Uncovered is the moving report of Lax's trip toward getting a home where she truly belongs.
