(And until then, at least, she would write the perfect tweets). But when the mayor takes a hard rightwing turn on rapidly escalating global conflicts, Sophie’s crisis of conscience snowballs; it’s already hard enough avoiding political conversations with her moderate parents, or shouting matches with her conservative grandmother, Irene, who has a deeply entrenched habit of dividing the world into things that are good for the Jews or bad for the Jews. And when Zaid, the most beautiful guy Sophie has ever seen, literally collides with her on his way to a protest against her boss, Sophie’s job begins to feel truly untenable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeanwhile, Irene—still trying to get a handle on widowhood, iPhones, and grandchildren who just don’t seem to want to accept how the world works—is determined to see Sophie nicely partnered up before she dies.
