Jewish Book Club: “The World That We Knew” by Alice Hoffman – Cancelled
April 7, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
The Jewish book club (separate from the Israeli book club ) meets monthly on Tuesdays at 1 PM at the JCC to discuss selected books by Jewish authors.
This week’s book is “The World That We Knew” by Alice Hoffman.
This instant New York Times bestseller and longlist recipient for the 2020 Andrew Carnegie Medal takes place in 1941, during humanity’s darkest hour, and follows three unforgettable young women who must act with courage and love to survive.
“[A] hymn to the power of resistance, perseverance, and enduring love in dark times…gravely beautiful…Hoffman the storyteller continues to dazzle.” —THE NEW YORK TIMES
