Our March book selection will be
Shanda: A Memoir of Shame and Secrecy by Letty Cottin Pogrebin
"The word “shanda” is defined as shame or disgrace in Yiddish. This book, Shanda, tells the story of three generations of complicated, intense 20th-century Jews for whom the desire to fit in and the fear of public humiliation either drove their aspirations or crushed their spirit.
While unmasking their charades and disguises, Pogrebin also showcases her family’s remarkable talent for reinvention in a narrative that is, by turns, touching, searing, and surprisingly universal."
We'll also choose our reading selections for the next few months. All meetings are on Zoom and everyone is welcome!
