SUMMARY:JCC Book Festival
DESCRIPTION:Join the JCC for their 2021 Book Festival. \nSpeaker: Rachel Beanland\nFlorence Adler Swims Forever\nFICTION \nNational Jewish Book Awards Winner 2020 \nThe title of Rachel Beanland’s new nov­el\, Flo­rence Adler Swims For­ev­er\, leads read­ers to believe they are crack­ing the spine of a light beach read about a bygone era. The first few chap­ters reward these expec­ta­tions\, as the read­er is immersed in the world of 1930s Atlantic City. Yet the book soon takes a turn\, tack­ling emo­tion­al themes and a sto­ry­line that becomes increas­ing­ly com­plex by the page. \nWhat makes this nov­el fas­ci­nat­ing is there are not many sto­ries depict­ing Jew­ish immi­grants already liv­ing for a gen­er­a­tion in Amer­i­ca in 1934. The nov­el cen­ters on a Jew­ish fam­i­ly no longer strug­gling to assim­i­late\, but rather deal­ing with the chal­lenges of eco­nom­ic sur­vival\, anti­semitism\, and intermarriage. \nRachel Bean­land is a grad­u­ate of the Uni­ver­si­ty of South Car­oli­na and earned her MFA in cre­ative writ­ing from Vir­ginia Com­mon­wealth Uni­ver­si­ty. She lives with her hus­band and three chil­dren in Rich­mond\, Vir­ginia. Flo­rence Adler Swims For­ev­er is her first novel. \n

SUMMARY:A (post) Hanukkah Celebration:  Doni Zasloff and Eric Lindberg\, “Jews\, Bluegrass\, and Other 'American' Musics"
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, December 8 at 7:00 PM \nLive in the EMU Student Center Auditorium \nand on Zoom at: tinyurl.com/nefeshmountain \nAccording to Rolling Stone\, Doni Zasloff and Eric Lindberg’s bluegrass ensemble\, Nefesh Mountain offers “a master class in string music . . . preach[ing] peace\, understanding\, and acceptance with musical muscle.” Among the first to capture Jewish American culture in the world of American roots music\, Zasloff and Lindberg brilliantly blend Appalachian bluegrass\, Celtic folk\, and Eastern European traditions. But what is at stake in such a synthesis? Is Nefesh Mountain the dawn of a new American sound? Come join the EMU Center for Jewish Studies for a joyous evening of talk and music! \nAdmission is free and open to all for both the live presentation/performance and the Zoom (but you MUST register to attend the Zoom!). \nThis presentation/performance is co-sponsored by Hillel at Eastern Michigan University\, the EMU School of Music and Dance\, the Jewish Federation of Greater Ann Arbor\, and the Harold Grinspoon Foundation. The Center would also like to offer a very special thank you to sponsors Harlene and Henry Appelman.
