with Rabbi Amy
This Book Club is inspired by Lilith, one of the fiercest forgotten women of Jewish literature. Prior to each meeting, we’ll read a book by or about Jewish women, each taking place during a different time period, so we’ll learn a little history, enjoy some fantastic novels, and bring to light some forgotten figures of the Jewish past over a nosh and some great discussions.
Thursday, September 19 | 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm | Congregation Temple Israel | free for TI members; $18 for non-members (registration is required to attend!)
Light refreshments provided. Feel free to BYO wine or other treats to share.
Our September book is:
An Unorthodox Match: A Novel by Naomi Ragen
About the book: California girl Lola has her life all set up: business degree, handsome fiancé, fast track career, when suddenly, without warning, everything tragically implodes. Her fate brings her to the dysfunctional home of newly-widowed Jacob, a devout Torah scholar, whose life is also in turmoil, and whose small children are aching for the kindness of a womanly touch. While her mother direly predicts she is ruining her life, it is the shocking and unexpected messages of her new community itself which will finally force her into a deeper understanding of the real choices she now faces and which will ultimately decide her fate.
