Raising Sparks,
by Ariel Kahn
From Goodreads:
Malka grows up in the Old City of Jerusalem in the confines of the Ultra-orthodox Jewish community. Meandering through the narrow streets she finds herself at the door of one of the city's most renowned and reclusive mystics and discovers her father's top rabbinical student, Russian immigrant Moshe studying forbidden Kabbalistic texts. She has a disturbing vision of a tree of prayers growing up inside the house, and the prayers all seem to be talking to her. The prayers become a giant bird, and chase her from the house. Malka has unwittingly uncovered a great mystical gift.
There is also a Guardian article on the book, which you can read here: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2018/sep/05/not-the-booker-raising-sparks-by-ariel-kahn-review-coincidence-unbound
