• 'A gentle chronicle of empathy and understanding' - Guardian

   • 'Margot's is an exceptional voice, illuminating a section of society rarely seen in a refreshingly frank manner. Mazel Tov is a book about finding familiarity in the strange, but also the stranger in ourselves, in which courage and humour save us from the usual romanticising. Any reader interested in the central questions of our time will find enlightenment here' - Deborah Feldman, author of the New York Times bestseller 'Unorthodox'

   • 'A brave and important contribution to our understanding of memory' - Daniel Okrent, author of 'The Guarded Gate'

   • 'So much more than a good read... What makes Mazel Tov especially attractive is that the author effortlessly succeeds in depicting real-life characters' - Cutting Edge
