Monroeville Public Library recently issued the following announcement.
Social Justice Book Club - 'People Love Dead Jews: Reports From A Haunted Present'
Wed Apr 13th 7:00pm - 8:30pm (EDT)
Adult
This month, we will be discussing People Love Dead Jews: Reports From A Haunted Present by Dara Horn. Finding herself increasingly asked to write about Jewish culture in the aftermath of deadly attacks, novelist Dara Horn uses this collection of essays to confront why there might be so much fascination with Jewish deaths, and so little respect for Jewish lives unfolding in the present.
