She taught herself to sew at 16 and would make the tznius - modest - version of what she saw in the fashion magazines she smuggled into the house. Though she was outwardly obedient, Haart couldn’t completely repress her creative, inquisitive nature. She spent her days cooking, serving her husband and downplaying her interest in the books that lined the shelves of their home. They eventually had four children, a relatively small number by the standards of the community. A year later, she was married off to a near-stranger. When she was 18, Haart changed her name from Julia to the more Hebrew-sounding Talia in order to attract a match. By the time I was married, I already had seven children,” says Haart.
“I changed their diapers and wiped their snotty noses.
The eldest of eight children, she is 10 years older than her next sibling and, as an adolescent, was thrust into the role of caretaker. (As if to immediately disprove this notion, she responds to an offhand question about the differences between her Yeshivish community and the Hasidic sects that live in the same area with a concise history of 19th century European Judaism.) I was told, ‘Women’s minds are light’ - ‘nashim da’atan kalos,” she says in Hebrew. Though her world was centered on the yeshiva, Haart, as a woman, was not encouraged to read religious literature, “because my mind wasn’t capable of grasping it, you see. But these are the basics: Haart was born in Moscow and moved around the world with her family as a child, eventually settling in Monsey at the age of 11. She does deserve a tiny nod for the courage to unplug from another form of archaic indoctrination.Even now, there are many details she is reluctant to divulge, at least until her memoir, “Brazen” - which she has whittled down to 400 or so pages from 1,700 - is released next year. Question: My Unorthodox Life review - is it interesting enough for 9 episodes?Īnswer: No way! She's obtuse and inchoate. I believe in brutal honesty like you Ms Haart. They're definitely brilliant as the late Versace demonstrated and was way above and before her. In fact, the entire fashion industry owes a huge debt to Mother Nature and has to be healthier to show an example of ecological, creative brilliance to our world. I admire her for having the strength to leave but please focus on secular, humane and ecological matters on this planet. I have learnt good lessons from practicing members of her faith. Curiously, she keeps referencing Judaism but really should not. I am happy she did not commit suicide because she's a gorgeous lady with health and no one should ever do this but it's just a weak character that resulted in her leaving the Orthodox faith she was born into without changing it from within. I personally have known people that have lived a larger life than you and can buy you 10 times over and do not need to play the false victim and self-aggrandizement of the past. Instead, Ms Haart simply lives in a Manhattan-Hamptons bubble with blinders on. Teach your children to do what is right and be proactive about doing good. She was in the clear-cuts of the hinterland to prove the wealthy do care about our planet.
She's often indifferent, emotional & ridiculous.Īnd, I ask Ms Haart, I planted 1000s of seedlings per day with the daughter of a billionaire. I do not recommend her blatant self-aggrandizement. Be a leader in an ecological fashion industry. She should follow his advice about protecting the natural areas he communes with that are vanishing. She seems to forget major issues on the globe while she happily pollutes and shows off in a yacht lifestyle. Her worship at the altar of narcissistic nihilism is old & should not be emulated.
