Hereville is the story of Mirka, a young girl living in the orthodox Jewish community of Aherville. She is a strong-willed girl who dreams of becoming a dragon slayer, while struggling with the duties imposed by being female in a community that values traditional gender roles. The story is leisurely and steeped in cultural tradition; even troll killing must wait until after Shabbat rituals.
