Gerdie's Legacy: A Novella

One of my crowning achievements in college (and a main reason why I chose my college over other institutions) was for the opportunity to write a novel(la) for the senior thesis requirement. Gerdie's Legacy was my baby. I was timely, thorough, and always seemed to impress my thesis advisor, I might add. I chose to explore the theme of different variations of American Judaism in one family. The story is named after the matriarch, but is largely about her daughters' journeys and is occasionally narrated by her granddaughter. About 75 pages long in Word, I've split it up here for your convenience. :P I hope you enjoy Gerdie's Legacy.

Epilogue: Michelle, Autumn 1995
