Críticas:
"This imaginative first novel leads you on a journey of fantastic tales, stormy family ties and a tragic discovery of redemption that will break your heart."--Washington Post
"Feldman is an ambitious writer who conjures up instead a deeply moving modern-day fable that far transcends the boundaries of its location and time."--NPR, All Things Considered
"Feldman's prose is intelligent, engaging, and at times figurative... a versatile virtuosity impressive for a debut work."--New York Journal of Books
"In her spellbinding debut novel, Stephanie Feldman tells an epic tale of mystery, discovery, and familial love...Feldman's debut novel is moving, mature, and deeply original."--Ploughshares
"It's beautifully constructed and just plain beautiful."--Book Riot
"Stephanie Feldman's debut novel, The Angel of Losses, is haunting. Even more gripping than the real and imagined folktales that Feldman weaves into the book, however, is her exploration of sisterly rifts and bonds and family secrets shrouded by time."--Philadelphia Inquirer
"Stephanie Feldman writes with tremendous warmth, tenderness and insight, and The Angel of Losses is a smart and beautiful novel that is all at once a literary thriller, a multigenerational family saga and a stunning exploration of Jewish mysticism. I loved this book."----Molly Antopol, National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 Honoree and author of The UnAmericans: Stories
"Feldman mixes legend, mystery, and history to create an intricate story that bridges yesterday and today."----Historical Novels Review
"Feldman's debut novel is an unusual combination of literary thriller, family drama, and Jewish mysticism . . . Fans of Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian or the works of Lev Grossman will find something here in a similar vein, but with a little quieter pacing and a little more spirituality."----Library Journal
"This impressive debut from Feldman is a page-turner that celebrates sisterly love."----Publishers Weekly

Now in paperback, the inventive, lushly imagined debut novel—reminiscent of The Tiger's Wife and The History of Love—that explores the intersections of family secrets, Jewish myths, the legacy of war and history, and the bonds between sisters
Sisters Marjorie and Holly are best friends—until Holly converts to a mysterious Jewish sect and marries a controlling man Marjorie despises. When Holly announces she's expecting her first child, Marjorie fears that she's lost her sister forever.
But then Marjorie discovers their late grandfather Eli's notebook and its tale about a wizard named the White Rebbe and his struggle against the Angel of Losses, protector of the lost letter of the alphabet, which completes the secret name of God. Everything Marjorie thought she knew about her family comes undone. To learn the truth, she embarks on an odyssey that will lead her deep into the past and back to the present—and finally to her estranged sister, Holly, whom she must save from the consequences of Eli's secrets.
Interweaving history, theology, and both real and imagined Jewish folktales, The Angel of Losses is a family story of what lasts, and of what we can—and cannot—escape.
