Enjoy the fun and stimulation of a book group, without making a commitment.

At two o'clock one Sunday a month at the BJE Jewish Community Library, Jim Van Buskirk will facilitate a lively discussion of these five exciting Jewish novels.

Pick up your individual copy of the book during the month preceding the discussion, read the book in advance and then come to one or all of the dates -- and feel free to invite your friends.

There is no charge for materials or attendance.

Philip Roth: The Plot Against America (2004)

Sunday, August 15
Zoe Heller: The Believers (2009)

After a prominent civil rights lawyer is left in a coma, his wife of forty years and their two daughters and adopted son are called upon to examine their lives together and their identities as individuals.
