Brazen: My Unorthodox Journey from Long Sleeves to Lingerie by Julia Haart (Author, Narrator),
A riveting, inspiring memoir of one woman’s escape from an extremist religious sect and an extraordinary rise from housewife to shoe designer, to CEO and co-owner of the modeling agency Elite World Group “An irresistible read.... Written with great intensity and rare candor, Brazen is a story of longing for more and manifesting that vision.” (Tommy Hilfiger) Ever since she was a child, every aspect of Julia Haart’s life—what she wore, what she ate, what she thought—was controlled by the dictates of ultra-Orthodox Judaism. At 19, after a lifetime spent caring for her seven younger siblings, she was married off to a man she barely knew. For the next 23 years, her marriage would rule her life. Eventually, when Haart’s younger daughter, Miriam, started to innocently question why she wasn’t allowed to sing in public, run in shorts, or ride a bike without being covered from neck to knee, Haart reached a breaking point. She knew that if she didn’t find a way to leave, her daughters would be forced into the same unending servitude that had imprisoned her. So Haart created a double life. In the ultra-Orthodox world, clothing has one purpose—to cover the body, head to toe—and giving any thought to one’s appearance beyond that is considered sinful, an affront to God. But when no one was looking, Haart would pore over fashion magazines and sketch designs for the clothes she dreamed about wearing in the world beyond her Orthodox suburb. She started preparing for her escape by educating herself and creating a “freedom” fund. At the age of 42, she finally mustered the courage to flee the fundamentalist life that was strangling her soul. Within a week of her escape, Haart founded a shoe brand, and within nine months, she was at Paris Fashion Week. Just a few years later, she was named creative director of La Perla. Soon she would become co-owner and CEO of Elite World Group, and one of the most powerful people in the fashion industry. Along the way, her four children—Batsheva, Shlomo, Miriam, and Aron—have not only accepted but embraced her transformation. Propulsive and unforgettable, Haart’s story is the journey from a world of no to a world of yes, and an inspiration for women everywhere to find their freedom, their purpose, and their voice. *Includes a downloadable PDF containing photos and end notes from the book PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Please take it from someone who knows. This book is literally fiction and is full of lies. I grew up traditional Jewish in Israel in different types of Jewish communities then moved to Queens and Brooklyn and experienced several Jewish communities, both religious and not. For the Jewish communities, I had very close interaction with all types of Jews and religious sects. I chose (was NOT forced to) become religious at the age of 18. I have not regretted my decision even once since then (It’s been over 20 years). So much of the “facts” in this book are only the author’s perception and not at all actual laws in Judaism. I always wore red polish and heels. I was always fashionable and my wigs were always very long. I dated my husband for several months without any pressure from anyone to get engaged after 3 dates. NONE of the dating and marriage rants and lies mentioned in the book are true. I was encouraged to go to law school which I almost did but chose to start and run my own nutrition company. My husband and community have been supporting my CEO and business women status since day 1. I have 5 kids, not the “required” 6 or 8. When I had 3 or 4 and even 1/2 no one expected me to have more. It was a choice I made. I have friends who went to the same schools Julia talks about and have never experienced these “stories”. I get it, sensationalism sells. The book needed to be dramatic and extreme so basic stories wouldn’t do but why make up literally lies ?! Just because Julia wanted out does NOT mean the “facts” she lists are true. They are absolutely not. This book isn’t an honest account, it’s literally fiction. Julia, I hope you find your way back to what’s real one day. Until then, please stop spreading lies.
