Lilith Zerem­ba, a young woman rebelling against her intel­lec­tu­al­ly com­plex, fem­i­nist Jew­ish moth­er, is The Last Jew­ish Vir­gin. In this play­ful and provoca­tive, sen­su­al and sus­pense­ful nov­el, Jan­ice Eidus merges the time­less, roman­tic myth of the vam­pire with con­tem­po­rary life in volatile New York City — and beyond. Deter­mined to make her own way — on her own terms — as a suc­cess­ful Jew­ish woman in the world of fash­ion, Lilith finds her­self in a place where mythol­o­gy and sex­u­al­i­ty col­lide. She meets two men to whom she is drawn in ways that feel dan­ger­ous and yet inevitable: the much old­er, wild­ly mer­cu­r­ial and mes­mer­iz­ing Baron Rock, and Col­in Abel, a young, radi­ant artist deter­mined to make the world a bet­ter place, one social­ly pro­gres­sive paint­ing at a time. The Last Jew­ish Vir­gin, an inno­v­a­tive and uni­ver­sal tale of long­ing and redemp­tion, refresh­es and rein­vents the clas­sic vam­pire myth for a con­tem­po­rary world in which love, com­pas­sion, faith, and pol­i­tics are for­ev­er evolv­ing and inter­sect­ing in sur­pris­ing and orig­i­nal ways.
