In Williamsburg, Brooklyn, just a block or two up from the East River on Division Avenue, Surie Eckstein is soon to be a great-grandmother. Her 10 children range in age from 13 to 39. Her in-laws, postwar immigrants from Romania, live on the first floor of their house. Her daughter Tzila Ruchel lives on the second. She and Yidel, a scribe in such demand that he makes only a few Torah scrolls a year, live on the third. Wed when Surie was 16, they have a happy marriage and a full life, and, at the ages of 57 and 62, they are looking forward to some quiet time together.

The Irony of Love
Revisado: 10-19-23
Wonderful story about a Chassidic Orthodox Jewish woman going though menopause , and discovers she is pregnant at the age of 57 with twins ! She has the same midwife as she had when she was having all 10 of her children. Married to a Rabbi who did not consider pregnancy as to why she was getting so big. She does not tell him. She gets very involved in translating for the midwife instead.
