Editor's Note:
The first inside look at the experiences of women who visit traditional mikvehs—ritual baths used to achieve purity For Orthodox Jews, immersion in the mikveh—a ritual bath for women based on purity laws—is the cornerstone of family life. Jewish women are commanded to immerse in the mikveh before marriage, and to do so every month after their menstrual cycle before sexual relations with their husbands may resume. Yet many women from all streams of Judaism use the mikveh, often for personal reasons that have more to do with faith than religion. And while the mikveh has been a tool for the exclusion of women, it has also, surprisingly, become an instrument of women’s power—a place men cannot enter and thus cannot control. Roused by her own experiences of immersion, for eleven years Varda Polak-Sahm patiently observed and interviewed Jewish women using the mikveh, gaining unprecedented access to the entirely hidden feminine culture and sensual atmosphere within traditional mikvehs. The result is a richly nuanced, uncensored look at an experience that is for some holy and for others coercive. The House of Secrets gives voice to women from all branches of Judaism as they open up about what the mikveh means to them; how it fits in with their attitudes toward religion; its effect on their marriages and families as well as on their sexual, physical, and spiritual self-perception and on their relationship with God. Already widely praised in Israel, this English translation provides a firsthand account of the power of ritual immersion for the growing number of American Jews interested in reclaiming this practice.
