DESCRIPTION:Will be reading Burnt Bread and Chutney: Growing Up Between Cultures-A Memoir of a Indian Jewish Girl. By Carmit Delmas. \nIn the politics of skin color\, Carmit Delman is an ambassador from a world of which few are even aware.

Her father is American\, a Jewish man of Eastern European descent. They met while working the land of a nascent Israeli state. Bound by love for each other and that newborn country\, they hardly took notice of the interracial aspect of their union. But their daughter\, Carmit\, growing up in America\, was well aware of her uncommon heritage. \nAfter book club everyone is invited to have dinner at an Indian restaurant at 5:00 prior to Simchat Torah Services at 6:30.

SUMMARY:CBS Book Club
DESCRIPTION:NOTE:  Earlier Meeting time\n\nWe will be discussing “The last Kabbalist of Lisbon” by Richard Zimler\nWe invite anyone interested to join us for an engaging discussion.\n\n\nThe Last Kabbalist of Lisbon\, is an extraordinary novel that transports readers into the universe of Jewish Kabbalah during the Lisbon massacre of April 1506. \nJust a few years earlier\, Jews living in Portugal were dragged to the baptismal font and forced to convert to Christianity. Many of these New Christians persevered in their Jewish prayers and rituals in secret and at great risk; the hidden\, arcane practices of the kabbalists\, a mystical sect of Jews\, continued as well. One such secret Jew was Berekiah Zarco\, an intelligent young manuscript illuminator. Inflamed by love and revenge\, he searches\, in the crucible of the raging pogrom\, for the killer of his beloved uncle Abraham\, a renowned kabbalist and manuscript illuminator\, discovered murdered in a hidden synagogue along with a young girl in dishabille. Risking his life in streets seething with mayhem\, Berekiah tracks down answers among Christians\, New Christians\, Jews\, and the fellow kabbalists of his uncle\, whose secret language and codes by turns light and obscure the way to the truth he seeks. A marvelous story\, a challenging mystery\, and a telling tale of the evils of intolerance\, The Last Kabbalist of Lisbon both compels and entertains.

DESCRIPTION:Kabbalah: A Love story \nBy Rabbi L Kushner \nSometime\, somewhere\, someone is searching for answers . . . . . . in a thirteenth-century castle\n. . . on a train to a concentration camp\n. . . in a New York city apartment \nHidden within the binding of an ancient text that has been passed down through the ages lies the answer to one of the heart’s eternal questions. When the text falls into the hands of Rabbi Kalman Stern\, he has no idea that his lonely life of intellectual pursuits is about to change once he opens the book. Soon afterward\, he meets astronomer Isabel Benveniste\, a woman of science who stirs his soul as no woman has for many years. But Kalman has much to learn before he can unlock his heart and let true love into his life. The key lies in the mysterious document he finds inside the Zohar\, the master text of the Kabbalah.

SUMMARY:CBS Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Will be reading “The Golem and the Jinni”  by Helene Wecker \nIn The Golem and the Jinni\, a chance meeting between mythical beings takes readers on a dazzling journey through cultures in turn-of-the-century New York. \nChava is a golem\, a creature made of clay\, brought to life by a disgraced rabbi who dabbles in dark Kabbalistic magic and dies at sea on the voyage from Poland. Chava is unmoored and adrift as the ship arrives in New York harbor in 1899. \nAhmad is a jinni\, a being of fire born in the ancient Syrian desert\, trapped in an old copper flask\, and released in New York City\, though still not entirely free. \nAhmad and Chava become unlikely friends and soul mates with a mystical connection. Marvelous and compulsively readable\, Helene Wecker’s debut novel The Golem and the Jinni weaves strands of Yiddish and Middle Eastern literature\, historical fiction and magical fable\, into a wondrously inventive and unforgettable tale.

SUMMARY:CBS Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Will be reading An Island Called Home:  Returning to Jewish Cuba  By Ruth Behar. \nYiddish-speaking Jews thought Cuba was supposed to be a mere layover on the journey to the United States when they arrived in the island country in the 1920s. They even called it “Hotel Cuba.” But then the years passed\, and the many Jews who came there from Turkey\, Poland\, and war-torn Europe stayed in Cuba. The beloved island ceased to be a hotel\, and Cuba eventually became “home.” But after Fidel Castro came to power in 1959\, the majority of the Jews opposed his communist regime and left in a mass exodus. Though they remade their lives in the United States\, they mourned the loss of the Jewish community they had built on the island. \nAs a child of five\, Ruth Behar was caught up in the Jewish exodus from Cuba. Growing up in the United States\, she wondered about the Jews who stayed behind. Who were they and why had they stayed? What traces were left of the Jewish presence\, of the cemeteries\, synagogues\, and Torahs? Who was taking care of this legacy? What Jewish memories had managed to survive the years of revolutionary atheism? \nAn Island Called Home is the story of Behar’s journey back to the island to find answers to these questions. Unlike the exotic image projected by the American media\, Behar uncovers a side of Cuban Jews that is poignant and personal. Her moving vignettes of the individuals she meets are coupled with the sensitive photographs of Havana-based photographer Humberto Mayol\, who traveled with her. \nTogether\, Behar’s poetic and compassionate prose and Mayol’s shadowy and riveting photographs create an unforgettable portrait of a community that many have seen though few have understood. This book is the first to show both the vitality and the heartbreak that lie behind the project of keeping alive the flame of Jewish memory in Cuba.

SUMMARY:Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Next book to be read is The German Girl\, written by Armando Lucas Correa. Book Club will be held at the home of Susan Meyers 3PM\, Sunday December 17\, 2017. \nA young girl flees Nazi-occupied Germany with her family and best friend\, only to discover that the overseas refuge they had been promised is an illusion in this “powerful and affecting” ( Kirkus Reviews) debut novel\, perfect for fans ofThe Nightingale\, All the Light We Cannot See\, and Schindler’s List. \nBefore everything changed\, young Hannah Rosenthal lived a charmed life. But now\, in 1939\, the streets of Berlin are draped with red\, white\, and black flags; her family’s fine possessions are hauled away; and they are no longer welcome in the places that once felt like home. Hannah and her best friend\, Leo Martin\, make a pact: whatever the future has in store for them\, they’ll meet it together. \nHope appears in the form of the S.S. St. Louis\, a transatlantic liner offering Jews safe passage out of Germany. After a frantic search to obtain visas\, the Rosenthals and the Martins depart on the luxurious ship bound for Havana. Life on board the St. Louis is like a surreal holiday for the refugees\, with masquerade balls\, exquisite meals\, and polite\, respectful service. But soon ominous rumors from Cuba undermine the passengers’ fragile sense of safety. From one day to the next\, impossible choices are offered\, unthinkable sacrifices are made\, and the ship that once was their salvation seems likely to become their doom. \nSeven decades later in New York City\, on her twelfth birthday\, Anna Rosen receives a strange package from an unknown relative in Cuba\, her great-aunt Hannah. Its contents will inspire Anna and her mother to travel to Havana to learn the truth about their family’s mysterious and tragic past\, a quest that will help Anna understand her place and her purpose in the world. \nThe German Girl sweeps from Berlin at the brink of the Second World War to Cuba on the cusp of revolution\, to New York in the wake of September 11\, before reaching its deeply moving conclusion in the tumult of present-day Havana. Based on a true story\, this masterful novel gives voice to the joys and sorrows of generations of exiles\, forever seeking a place called home.
