Book Club: Rashi's Daughter, Book II: Miriam By Maggie Anton Troyes, France, 1078. As Salomon ben Isaac teaches his lively and daring middle daughter, Miriam, the intricacies of the Talmud, he has no idea how far she will push the boundaries. Emboldened by her knowledge and mourning the death of her betrothed, Miriam is determined to become not only the community's midwife, but also its mohel-performing circumcisions.
