Am Tag seines Erscheinens führte der Titel Unorthodox schlagartig die Bestsellerliste der New York Times an und war sofort ausverkauft. Wenige Monate später durchbrach die Auflage die Millionengrenze. Die amerikanische Presse erklärte diesen Erfolg von Deborah Feldmans Bericht so: Noch nie hat eine Autorin ihre Befreiung aus den Fesseln religiöser Extremisten so lebensnah, so ehrlich, so analytisch klug und dabei literarisch so anspruchsvoll erzählt. In der chassidischen Satmar Gemeinde in Williamsburg, New York, herrschen die strengsten Regeln einer ultraorthodoxen jüdischen Gruppe weltweit. Die Satmarer, wie sie sich seit ihrer Gründung nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg nennen, sehen im Holocaust eine von Gott verhängte Strafe. Sexualität ist ein Tabu, Ehen werden arrangiert, im Alltag wird Jiddisch gesprochen, Englisch gilt als verbotene, unreine Sprache. Nach Schätzungen zählt die Gemeinde heute Ihr Gerechtigkeitsempfinden und ihr Wissenshunger haben sie — verstärkt durch verbotene Literatur — angetrieben, ihren Alltag zu hinterfragen. Stets hat sie Angst, entdeckt und bestraft zu werden und ihren einzigen Ausweg aus der Enge ihrer Welt zu verlieren. Sie führt uns bis an die Grenze des Erträglichen, wenn sie ihre Zwangsehe schildert, und sie lässt uns nachempfinden, wie sie Boys Vomit Gay Revenge und Kraft zum Auszug aus der Gemeinde findet — um mit ihren Sohn in eine ihr völlig unbekannte Welt in New York zu ziehen. Unorthodox ist eine meisterhafte Schilderung des Emanzipationsprozesses einer jungen Frau aus tiefer Einsamkeit und Angst hin zu einem einzigen Punkt: dem eigenen Denken und Fühlen.

The minute I started this book I was engrossed and I finished it within 2 days. I found as a woman, it was almost infuriating to read. I also think it is disgusting and awful that so many from her former "community" are stalking her and posting fake reviews calling the book false. This book is HER memoir and HER truth and she is completely and utterly entitled to it. This is a rare look into this strange community. It is an interesting read for me personally since I live in an area where there is a large population. I never really knew what to make of these women I see often pushing baby carriages and conversing with no one but their own. Now, I feel a sort of sadness for them. I am sure that many are content and even happy in this lifestyle but I am glad for the author that she wanted more and she was able to attain it. Melanie Linn. Author 2 books Boys Vomit Gay Revenge followers. While "Unorthodox" is a fascinating and enthralling book, I feel as though it was written several years too early. The book left me with many questions, questions that perhaps could not be addressed by the author because her escape from Hasidism is still too fresh. Did she ever get to the bottom of her husband's infidelity? How was she able to take her son with her when she mentions in the book that 'it's never been done'? Did she lose all contact with her grandparents after she left?

Greene tries to convince his father to undergo cancer treatment. She is still married, still very young.
