In Karen Hesse's award-winning novel, "Letters From Rifka," the reader becomes an intimate companion to Rifka through her heartfelt and deeply personal letters. Each letter paints a vivid tapestry of her struggles, aspirations, and the complexities of assimilating into a foreign land.
Navigating a Maze of Cultural Dissonance
Rifka's journey begins as she leaves her beloved village in Russia, filled with anticipation and trepidation. Upon arriving at Ellis Island, her dreams of a new life are met with a harsh reality of long processing lines, medical examinations, and the confusion of a new language.
As she settles into her new home in the bustling city of New York, Rifka grapples with the challenges of assimilation. She struggles to understand English, adapt to American customs, and cope with the prejudices she encounters as an immigrant.
Through her letters, readers witness Rifka's resilience as she navigates the maze of cultural dissonance, seeking her place in a society that often feels hostile.
The Power of Human Connection
Amidst the struggles, "Letters From Rifka" offers a beacon of hope in the form of human connection. Rifka finds solace in her friendship with a kind neighbor, Mrs. Tessler, and a fellow immigrant, Esther.
Through these relationships, Rifka discovers the power of understanding, empathy, and shared experiences. She learns that even in the face of adversity, human kindness can prevail.
A Coming-of-Age Journey

Rifka's journey mirrors the universal experiences of adolescence – the search for identity, the yearning for acceptance, and the complexities of finding one's place in the world.
A Masterful Work of Historical Fiction
