Pauline Berkovitz, frazzled stay-at-home mom with four small kids, feels like a square peg in a round hole. She can’t fit into her newly adopted Orthodox Jewish community—or squeeze her widening hips into her skirt. Should she shy away from her past to fully embrace this new way of life? Since she has no clarity, getting away for Passover looks like the perfect solution, even if it means packing thirteen people and hoarding frozen
briskets into two RVs. But Pauline cannot sweep anxiety under the doormat of her suburban bungalow. Angst slips onto her lap in the form of a package: a mysterious box of matzah with a name but no address. To find the rightful owner, Pauline must hone her inner trust and veer off course, yet she must also deliver her motley convoy to their destination in time for
the Passover Seder.
Pauline’s journal takes us onboard with the Berkovitz and Shapiro families. As their two RVs belt down the highway toward Destin, Florida, Pauline must placate the demanding and acerbic Mike Shapiro and win over Batya, Mike’s gloomy, withdrawn teenage daughter. Pauline also wants to fully appreciate unabashed Sam, her carefree husband who has attained nirvana 24/7, and Mike’s devout wife Julie, who is having a constant dialogue with God. Pursued by piles of laundry and piercing back pain, Pauline meets people en
route who help her realize that she too has wisdom to share.
Let my RV Go! is an honest, light-hearted and refreshing observation of one woman’s search for meaning—even if it requires turning her life upside down and tearing out the kitchen sink. Ever had Passover in an RV? Hop aboard and celebrate with a twist.
