The Weaver’s Loom is a story about the special bond between Gypsies and Jews, of which the Gypsies, and a good many Jews, are keenly aware. Reid grew up on Pigeon Hill, a community of Hungarian and Romanian immigrants in Aurora, Illinois, where she uncovered her own Hungarian Jewish heritage - a secret kept hidden for three generations.
