NovNovember 13 , 2024Emeth Reads: The Hebrew Teacher: Three Novellas by Maya Arad
Wednesday, Nov 13th 7:00p to 8:30p
Our next book will be The Hebrew Teacher: Three Novellas by Maya Arad, with Sharon Genkin leading the discussion on Wednesday, November 13th in-person and on Zoom at 7:00 pm. Three Israeli women, their lives altered by immigration to the United States, seek to overcome crises. Ilana is a veteran Hebrew instructor at a Midwestern college who has built her life around her career. When a young Hebrew literature professor joins the faculty, she finds his post-Zionist politics pose a threat to her life’s work. Miriam, whose son left Israel to make his fortune in Silicon Valley, pays an unwanted visit to meet her new grandson and discovers cracks in the family’s perfect façade. Efrat, another Israeli in California, is determined to help her daughter navigate the challenges of middle school, and crosses forbidden lines when she follows her into the minefield of social media. In these three stirring novellas—comedies of manners with an ambitious blend of irony and sensitivity—celebrated Israeli author Maya Arad probes the demise of idealism and the generation gap that her heroines must confront. -
