This review is from: Between Two Worlds: Adult Children of Jewish-Gentile Intermarriage (Paperback)
Leslie Goodman-Malamuth and Robin Margolis have done a great thing by writing this book and affirming that children of interfaith marriages do have identity conflicts and issues about growing up with a mixed heritage. It's not a cut-and-dried thing--a lot of Christians regard us as Jewish and Jews want nothing to do with us (but only if we are patrilineally descended...if you have a Jewish mother, you are a Jew). This book has become one of my best friends by letting me know that I'm not alone in my quest for religious/cultural identity and that I'm not crazy for feeling an innate affinity for Judaism. It contains interviews with interfaiths that affiliate as Christians, Jews, agnostics, or whatever and presents ways for you to help deal with the duplicity in your life. This book is out-of-print, but if you are a child of intermarriage questioning your spirituality or ethnicity, it would be worth it to you to scour local or online used bookstores to find a copy, it's that worthwhile!
