The Membership & Engagement Committee would like to invite you to join our Shir Tikvah Book Club! We will meet every two months to discuss a book that is either written by a Jewish author or contains Jewish themes and stories. Our first book is The Lost Shtetl by Max Gross, a novel about a shtetl in the Polish forest that no one knows exists. For decades, the shtetl of Kreskol existed in happy isolation, virtually untouched and unchanged, spared by the Holocaust and Cold War. When a marriage dispute spins out of control, a woman in the village vanishes. Her husband goes after her, setting off panic. Eventually another villager is sent out of the shtetl to find the family.

Pick up a copy from your local bookstore or library, give it a read, and join us for a sweet conversation with snacks!
