DESCRIPTION:Up From Orchard Street by Eleanor Widmer\n“The story of three generations of the Roth family\, who live together in a crowded tenement at 12 Orchard Street on the Lower East Side. … We live through the bittersweet world of these blunt\, earthy\, feisty people for whom poverty was endemic\, illness common\, crises frequent\, and zest for living intense. Money may have been short\, but opinions were not\, and their tart tongues and lively humor invest every page. In this riveting story lies the heart of the American immigrant experience: a novel at once wise\, funny\, poignant\, anguishing\, exultant-and bursting with love.” – Jewish Book Council \nDiscussion led by congregant Linda Gerstman

SUMMARY:Book Club (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:All Who Go Do Not Return\, by Shulem Deen  \nShulem Deen\, a member of the Skverers\, an insular Hasidic sect in the United States\, has been raised to believe that questions are dangerous and\, therefore\, not to be asked in any form. At age 18 he marries\, an arranged marriage as is the custom\, and soon finds he is the father of several children. But Shulem wants more from life-he is curious\, and it is this curiosity\, encouraged in the outside world but shunned in his\, that begins his dangerous descent. First is the use of the radio\, then a trip to the library and then the use of the internet. All these experiences lead him to begin questioning his religious beliefs and  ultimately his own faith.  Considered a heretic by the standards of his community if his behavior is discovered\, he considers a life of deception while struggling to hold on to those he most loves\, his 5 children. A memoir\, this story  reveals how the author bravely deals with his loss of his faith.\n\nIf you did not receive the Zoom link via email\, please contact the office to register for this session: (914) 631-1770 or info@tba-ny.org.

DESCRIPTION:This month’s read: “House on Endless Waters” by Emuna Elon \nAt the behest of his agent\, renowned author Yoel Blum reluctantly agrees to visit his birthplace of Amsterdam to promote his books\, despite promising his late mother that he would never return to that city. While touring the Jewish Historical Museum with his wife\, Yoel stumbles upon footage portraying prewar Dutch Jewry and is astonished to see the youthful face of his beloved mother staring back at him\, posing with his father\, his older sister…and an infant he doesn’t recognize. \nThis unsettling discovery launches him into a fervent search for the truth\, shining a light on Amsterdam’s dark wartime history – the underground networks that hid Jewish children away from danger and those who betrayed their own for the sake of survival. The deeper into the past Yoel digs to tell the story of his life\, the better he understands his mother’s silence\, and the more urgent the question that has unconsciously haunted him for a lifetime – Who am I? – becomes.\n– Publisher’s summary \nIf you did not receive the link by email\, please contact the office to register for this session: (914) 631-1770 or info@tba-ny.org.“

DESCRIPTION:My Russian Grandmother and Her American Vacuum Cleaner by Meir Shalev \nHilarious and touching\, Grandma Tonia and her regulations come richly to life in a narrative that circles around the arrival into the family’s dusty agricultural midst of the big\, shiny American sweeper sent as a gift by Great-uncle Yeshayahu (he who shockingly emigrated to the sinful capitalist heaven of Los Angeles!).  …The fate of Tonia’s “svieeperr”—hidden away for decades in a spotless closed-off bathroom after its initial use—is a family mystery that Shalev determines to solve.  The result\, in this cheerful translation by Evan Fallenberg\, is pure delight\, as Shalev brings to life the obsessive but loving Tonia\, the pioneers who gave his childhood its spirit of wonder\, and the grit and humor of people building ever-new lives.—National Jewish Book Club  2018-2019 \n$2.00 suggested donation per guest. \nRSVP: (914) 631-1770 adulted@tba-ny.org

SUMMARY:TBABooks@Night (Book Club)
DESCRIPTION:Two Graphic Novels: \nA Con­tract with God: And Oth­er Ten­e­ment Stories by Will Eisner \nOriginally published in 1978\, the book is described as a col­lec­tion of four short sto­ries based on Eisner’s child­hood mem­o­ries. An inti­mate por­trait of immi­grant life in the 1930s Bronx\, it is an homage to a vanished world — not a glo­ri­fied past\, how­ev­er\, but a past with all its faults and ugli­ness. The trag­ic main charac­ters are all des­tined to fail\, and each sto­ry presents a sur­pris­ing twist at the end. \nThe Flying Couch by Amy Kurzweil \nDescribed as a third generation Holocaust novel\, the Jewish Book council calls it\, “an extra­or­di­nary tapestry woven from both painful and uproar­i­ous fam­i­ly sto­ries\, dream­scapes\, and oth­er sur­re­al flights of fan­cy (such as sequences in which the patri­arch Jacob\, Freud\, and Her­zl appear before the young artist with their incom­pat­i­ble agen­das) and poignant episodes from Amy’s own Bildungsroman.” \n$2.00 suggested donation per guest. \nRSVP: (914) 631-1770 adulted@tba-ny.org \n

DESCRIPTION:The Ritual Bath\, by Faye Kellerman \nDetective Peter Decker of the LAPD is stunned when he gets the report. Someone has shattered the sanctuary of a remote yeshiva community in the California hills with an unimaginable crime. One of the women was brutally raped as she returned from the mikvah…. The crime was called in by Rina Lazarus\, and Decker is relieved to discover she is a calm and intelligent witness. She is also the only one in the sheltered community willing to speak of this unspeakable violation. As Rina tries to steer Decker through the maze of religious laws\, the two grow closer. But before they get to the bottom of this horrendous crime\, revelations come to light that are so shocking\, they threaten to come between the hard-nosed cop and the deeply religious woman with whom he has become irrevocably linked. \n$2.00 suggested donation per guest \nRSVP: (914) 631-1770 adulted@tba-ny.org

DESCRIPTION:This month’s selection: Nothing is Forgotten by Peter Golden \n1950s New Jersey\, teacher Michael Daniels—or Misha Danielov to his doting Russian-Jewish grandmother—is at loose ends\, until he becomes the host of a nightly underground radio show. Not only does the show become a local hit because of his running satires of USSR leader Nikita Khrushchev\, but half a world away\, it picks up listeners in a small Soviet city. \nThere\, with rock and roll leaking in through bootlegged airwaves\, Yulianna Kosoy—a war orphan in her mid-twenties—is sneaking American goods into the country with her boss\, Der Schmuggler. \nBut just as Michael’s radio show is taking off\, his grandmother is murdered. Why would anyone commit such an atrocity against such a warm\, affable woman? She had always been secretive about her past and\, as Michael discovers\, guarded a shadowy ancestral history. In order to solve the mystery of who killed her\, Michael sets out for Europe to learn where he—and his grandmother—really came from. \n$2.00 suggested donation per guest.

SUMMARY:Book Club: To the End of the Land by David Grossman
DESCRIPTION:To the End of the Land\, by David Grossman \nOra\, a middle aged Israeli mother\, is about to celebrate her son Ofra’s release from army service.  Instead he returns to the front for a major offensive.  Upset by her son’s decision\, she sets out on a journey through the Galilee\, avoiding all news of the fighting\, in the hopes of also avoiding the dreaded knock on the door notifying her of the most horrible news imaginable- her son’s death.  If she is not at home\, her son’s death cannot happen.  Ora is accompanied on her travels by Avram\, her son’s biological father\, who has never met Ofra\, and who is the best friend of her ex-husband.  As they travel\, Ora describes the realities of daily life in Israel\, raising children amidst the background of continuous warfare and strife. Ora believes that Israel has no future.  “It doesn’t really have a chance\, this country.  It just doesn’t.”   \nWill you agree with her when you finish reading this book?   \n$2.00 suggested donation per guest \nRSVP: (914) 631-1770 adulted@tba-ny.org

SUMMARY:TBA Books@Night (Book Club)
DESCRIPTION:This month’s selection: The Last Watchman of Old Cairo by Michael David Lukas \nWinner of the National Jewish Book Award in fiction. Named one of the Ten Best Books of the Year by the BBC. A Penguin Random House International One World\, One Book Selection. \nJoseph\, a literature student at Berkeley\, is the son of a Jewish mother and a Muslim father. One day\, a mysterious package arrives on his doorstep\, pulling him into a mesmerizing adventure to uncover the tangled history that binds the two sides of his family. For generations\, the men of the al-Raqb family have served as watchmen of the storied Ibn Ezra Synagogue in Old Cairo\, built at the site where the infant Moses was taken from the Nile. Joseph learns of his ancestor Ali\, a Muslim orphan who nearly a thousand years earlier was entrusted as the first watchman of the synagogue and became enchanted by its legendary—perhaps magical—Ezra Scroll. The story of Joseph’s family is entwined with that of the British twin sisters Agnes and Margaret\, who in 1897 depart their hallowed Cambridge halls on a mission to rescue sacred texts that have begun to disappear from the synagogue.  \n$2.00 suggested donation per guest.

SUMMARY:Book Club: Amos Oz
DESCRIPTION:Reader’s Choice! – Amos Oz \nTo honor this renown author\, book club members should select one of the many works of Mr. Oz \nWe will discuss the works of Amos Oz\, Israeli writer and novelist\, who died this past December\, 2018. Author of many works of both fiction and non-fiction\, Mr. Oz\, proud to write his works in Hebrew\, a language of ancient times revived by modern Israel\, was considered the voice and soul of today’s Israel. In an interview with The New York Times in 1978 Mr. Oz said\, “I bring up the evil spirits and record the traumas\, the fantasies\, the lunacies of Israeli Jews\, natives and those from Central Europe. I deal with their ambitions and the powder-box of self-denial and self-hatred.” \n$2.00 suggested donation per guest.\nRSVP: (914) 631-1770 adulted@tba-ny.org

SUMMARY:Book Club
DESCRIPTION:This month’s selection: As Close To Us As Breathing by Elizabeth Poliner \nIn 1948\, a small stretch of Woodmont\, Connecticut shoreline\, affectionately named ‘Bagel Beach’\, has long been a summer destination for Jewish families. Here sisters Ada\, Vivie and Bec assemble at their beloved family cottage\, with children in tow and weekend-only husbands who arrive each Friday in time for the Sabbath meal. \nDuring the weekdays\, freedom reigns. … But when a terrible accident occurs on the sisters’ watch\, a summer of hope and self-discovery transforms into a lifetime of atonement and loss for members of this close-knit clan. Seen through the eyes of Molly\, who was 12 years old when she witnessed the accident\, this is the story of a tragedy and its aftermath\, of expanding lives painfully collapsed. Can Molly\, decades after the event\, draw from her aunt Bec’s hard-won wisdom and free herself from the burden that destroyed so many others? – National Jewish Book Club 2018-2019 \n$2.00 suggested donation per guest.
