People of the Book Club: The Losh Shtetl with Author Max Gross
Wednesday, February 24, 2021 @ 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm
Go behind the stories and peer inside the archives at the CJH book discussion, led by Lauren Gilbert, Senior Manager for Public Services at the Center for Jewish History. This session will feature a discussion of The Lost Shtetl by Max Gross, winner of the 2020 National Jewish Book Award in the “Book Club” category. A work of speculative fiction and magical realism, The Lost Shtetl tells the tale of a previously undiscovered remote Polish shtetl that is suddenly and unceremoniously dragged into the present. We will be joined by the author for a Q&A after the discussion.
Participants will need to obtain their own copy to read before the discussion.
NOTE: This is a book discussion, not a lecture, so space is limited.
