*Bestseller

“[An] enthralling portrait of a woman daring to defy convention in the face of rigid social confines. ...a story capturing issues of discrimination, the marginalization of women and class disparities… its themes linger long after the final page is read.” - USA Today

Not Our Kind transports the reader back to 1947, to the heart of New York’s WASP-y Upper East Side. Zeldis has written a powerful and page-turning account of what happens when Eleanor--smart, beautiful, and Jewish--is employed as a tutor by the troubled Bellamy family, and finds herself out of place in their world.” - Publishers Weekly
