"Mazel Tov! It's Twilight ... with a sense of humor, a brain, and a feminist subtext ...I tell you, the Undead have been waiting a long time for Janice Eidus."
                —Marion Winik, NPR commentator, author of "First Came Love"
 

"Nobody writes about Jewish cultural life quite as funnily and piercingly as Janice Eidus."
                —Mindy Lewis, editor, "Dirt: The Quirks, Habits, and Passions of Keeping House"
 

There’s nothing that I love more than fashion and Jewish humor (I’m a Jew myself) and Janice Eidus combined the two in her new novel "The Last Jewish Virgin". Determined to make her own way, on her own time, Lilith Zeremba is obsessively driven to become (and recognized as) a successful Jewish woman in the world of fashion design. To break away from her traditional roots she attends Bennett Institute of Art & Design. Of course, a fabulous love story must come into play when she’s drawn to two men that feel dangerous, yet inevitable...maybe they’re goys, the perfect Jewish rebellion. Jew or Goy, Mazel Tov on "The Last Jewish Virgin" and bringing some eroticism into Judaism.

Lilith Zeremba, a young woman rebelling against her intellectually complex, feminist Jewish mother, is The Last Jewish Virgin. In this playful and provocative, sensual and suspenseful novel, Janice Eidus merges the timeless, romantic myth of the vampire with contemporary life in volatile New York City—and beyond. Determined to make her own way—on her own terms—as a successful Jewish woman in the world of fashion, Lilith finds herself in a place where mythology and sexuality collide. She meets two men to whom she is drawn in ways that feel dangerous and yet inevitable: the much older, wildly mercurial and mesmerizing Baron Rock, and Colin Abel, a young, radiant artist determined to make the world a better place, one socially progressive painting at a time. The Last Jewish Virgin, an innovative and universal tale of longing and redemption, refreshes and reinvents the classic vampire myth for a contemporary world in which love, compassion, faith, and politics are forever evolving and intersecting in surprising and original ways.
