JewGirl is a thought-provoking work of nonfiction that captures what it means to be Jewish and female at a time when antisemitism is rising and women's rights are under siege. Blending personal narrative with cultural insight and historical perspective, Marcie Maxfield offers a vivid exploration of girlhood, identity, and resilience.

Using her trademark combination of humor and emotional intensity to maximum impact, JewGirl incorporates lived experience, social context, pop culture, and historical perspective. Through essays that trace Maxfield's life from childhood to the present, JewGirl reflects on the struggle of being and the universal search for belonging.

In her award-winning debut novel, Em's Awful Good Fortune, Marcie Maxfield captivated readers with her humor and vulnerability as she explored the challenges of marriage and the rocky road to finding self-love and healthy compromise. Now, she's done it again. Maxfield's wit is on full display in her insightful and heartfelt memoir JewGirl, a candid and compelling meditation on identity, privilege, and one woman's journey to find her place in the world.
