Virtual JCC Book Club: The Outside World

Tova Mervis, the author of this month’s selection, joins us for a very special discussion about her book that explores the dynamics between tradition and individualism through the eyes of a young woman as she falls in love during a trip to Jerusalem and navigates a complicated blend of faith, love, and family.

The JCC’s virtual book club meets online on the second Tuesday of each month to focus on Jewish authors and/or themes in both fiction and non-fiction. Each month a new book is selected by the group. The discussions focus on but are not limited to aspects of the author’s life that may have influenced his or her writing, key literary themes in the works, and how the work may be seen in the larger context of Jewish history and current events
