Sour Milk and Stolen Honey by Marianne Azizi is a remarkable story. In Israel, a husband's, or wife's, consent is necessary to end a marriage. Granting of divorce is in the exclusive hands of the rabbinical courts for all Jewish Israelis. Marianne Azizi is a British citizen that fell in love with a Jewish Israeli that was separated from his wife. They wanted to marry and start a new life together. The laws in place empowered his ex to behave vengefully. This book is about her harrowing experience. The bureaucracy made their lives miserable for an extended period of time, eventually destroying the relationship they once shared. Marianne is a courageous woman, and I would highly recommend reading this book!
