Angela Himsel
A River Could be a Tree


The seventh of eleven children, Angela grew up in southern Indiana in an apocalyptic, dooms-day Christian faith. Himsel’s memoir follows her journey attempting to understand the church’s strict tenets and time spent in Israel during college. Instead of strengthening her Christian faith, her time in Israel made her question Christianity itself. She ultimately converted to Judaism and lives in New York City with her family.
