Confessions of a Jewish Shiksa: The Second Greatest Story Ever Told by Frannie Sheridan
Confessions of a Jewish Shiksa is more than an autobiography or a memoir. It’s a powerful confession… it is a trip worth taking
“Compelled to tell her story and create shows from frantic chaotic moments in her life and relationships, Sheridan created a confessional piece that is pithy, involving, sassy and sometimes just a bit rude…a lively inspection of self, life, and the process involved in cultivating good feelings against all odds, shattering old paradigms and patterns of loss, grief, and negativity that inject the descendants of the Holocaust with a form of ongoing PTSD.”
