The Way Meat Loves Salt

The Way Meat Loves Salt: A Cinderella Tale from the Jewish Tradition by Nina Jaffe

One of the other openings for the Cinderella tale. A rabbi cruelly drives his daughter away because she tell him she loves him as meat loves salt. . . .

Bits of local color for the tradition, but the same skeleton under it. Nice illustrations.
