Enchantment Review Examines Family Bonds and Guilt
Daphne Merkin’s Enchantment investigates the hurt of loving kin beyond reason in a large New York Jewish family. Hannah Lehmann, 26, silently craves maternal warmth while her mother withholds affection, and the siblings repeatedly return to the parental home. The novel blends memoirlike fear and fascination, delivering a candid, unsentimental look at love, loyalty, and growing up.
