Just in time for Christmas! Rochelle Wisoff-Fields's third in the Havah Gitterman series, As

IRVING, Texas - Dec. 5, 2016 - PRLog -- Released just in time for Christmas! Rochelle Wisoff-Fields's third in the Havah Gitterman series, As One Must, One Can!

Havah Gitterman, her husband Arel, their children, and surviving family and friends have settled into their lives in America, the turmoil and persecution of Eastern Europe behind them. Or is it? Although physically safe in their adopted country, the ghosts of the dead and the horrors of the past still haunt them.

While everything is up to date in 1908 Kansas City, bigotry and religious discrimination abound. Havah faces each challenge, emotional or physical, with courage, determination and her father's voice ever reminding her, "As one must, one can."

Kansas City native Rochelle Wisoff-Fields is a woman of Jewish descent—the granddaughter of Eastern European immigrants—whose close personal connection to Jewish history is a recurring theme throughout much of her writing. Growing up, she was heavily influenced by the Sholom Aleichem stories as well as Fiddler on the Roof. Her novels Please Say Kaddish for Me and From Silt and Ashes (Argus Publishing) were born of her desire to share the darker side of these beloved tales; the history that can be difficult to view, much less embrace.

Before becoming an author, Rochelle attended the Kansas City Art Institute, where she studied painting and lithography. Her preferred media are pen and ink, pencil, and watercolor, which she uses in her book covers, character studies and will be used in her upcoming companion coffee table book for the series, A Stone for the Journey (Argus fall 2016).

Rochelle's short story "Savant" was published in Voices, Vol. III; "The Swimming Lesson," in Echoes of the Ozarks, Vol. VI; and "Reap the Whirlwind" in Voices, Volume IV. Two of these are included in her own short story collection, with original artwork, This, That and Sometimes the Other (High Hill Press). She is currently working on the fourth in the series, a coffee table companion book to the series, A Stone for the Journey (Argus Publishing, 2017).
