Shelter Us is contemporary fiction infused with Jewish values. “A watercolor portrait of a family at a crossroads,” according to novelist Gina B. Nahai, Shelter Us lifts up what it means today to “take care of the stranger” and explores how values are passed down from one generation to the next. Reviews “I couldn’t put this lovely book down.” - Christina Baker Kline, #1 NY Times bestselling author of Orphan Train. “Gorgeously written, deeply felt….A narrative about motherhood, loss, and the meaning of life becomes a true page-turner.” – Lorraine Devon Wilke, author of Hysterical Love see also www.LauraNicoleDiamond.com
