Rabbinerin Danya Ruttenbergers Werk befasst sich mit den tiefgreifenden spirituellen Fragen, die aus alltäglichen Erfahrungen, insbesondere der Elternschaft, entstehen.

Ihr Schreiben verwebt persönliche Reflexionen mit breiteren religiösen und philosophischen Themen und bietet den Lesern eine neue Perspektive auf das Navigieren im spirituellen Leben in der heutigen Zeit.
