Sobre este áudio
In this heart-warming and witty debut novel from a “Jewish Jane Austen” (Jill Kargman), three sisters chase love and grapple with the growing pains of young womanhood as they seek their place within and beyond their Syrian Jewish Brooklyn community.
The Cohen sisters are at a crossroads. And not just because the obedient middle sister, Fortune, has secretly started to question her engagement and impending wedding, even as her family scrambles to prepare for the big day. Nina, the rebellious eldest sister, is single at 26 (and growing cobwebs by her community's standards) when she runs into an old friend who offers her a chance to choose a different path. Meanwhile, Lucy, the youngest, a senior in high school, has started sneaking around with a charming older bachelor.
As Fortune inches ever closer to the chuppah, the sisters find themselves in a tug of war between tradition and modernity, reckoning with what their tight-knit community wants—and with what they want for themselves.
Sisters of Fortune is a sister story about dating, ambition, and coming-of-age within an immigrant community whose affection is endearing, maddening, and never boring. This novel reckons with the roots that entwine our lives to the ones who love us best, the dreams we hold for our daughters—and the winding paths we take to our own happy endings.

“This book explores the bonds of sisterhood, immigrant identity, and the universal search for self-determination—all served alongside perfectly rolled grape leaves.”—SheReads
“This plot-driven novel deftly examines weighty themes like generational pressure, sisterhood, and quiet rebellion, creating an intimate, tender, and insightful portrait of women carving space for themselves in a world that offers them little room to breathe. A vibrant celebration of identity and the push-pull between heritage and autonomy.”—Kirkus Reviews
“An absolute joy of a novel about a most enviable family, this is a book to savor—a feast for the heart and mind. Read it if you yearn to be immersed in matriarchy at its finest.”—Elisa Albert, author of Human Blues
