People of the Book Club
Tuesday, Sep 24th 7:00p to 8:00p
We are discussing a novel by an author who as a child lived in Ukraine and Russia. The debut novel is entitled “Your Presence is Mandatory” by Sasha Vasilyuk. It covers 70 years between World War II and the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2014, so it’s not about the current situation, but it may help us understand it. If you like to read and/or discuss books, please join the "People of the Book Club." It is not only for members of B'nai Zion.
