Join us for a moderated discussion about books with Jewish themes.
This month’s selection: The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store by James McBride
A New York Times Notable Book; Named A Best Book Of The Year By NPR/Fresh Air, Washington
In 1972, when workers in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, were digging the foundations for a new development, the last thing they expected to find was a skeleton at the bottom of a well. Who the skeleton was and how it got there were two of the long-held secrets kept by the residents of Chicken Hill, the dilapidated neighborhood where immigrant Jews and African Americans lived side by side and shared ambitions and sorrows.
Discussion moderated by a congregant.
