SUMMARY:Lisa Barr & Lauren Grodstein – Barbara Eisenberg Literary Luncheon Series
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a very special Literary Luncheon event with two best selling authors\, Lisa Barr and Lauren Grodstein as they talk about their latestt Warsaw Ghetto themed books\, The Goddess of Warsaw & We Must Not Think of Ourselves\, on Wedenesday\, January 15th at 12:30 pm. \nThe Goddess of Warsaw depicts Bina Blon­s­ki and her hus­band\, Jakub in the Warsaw Ghetto.  cramped into the War­saw Ghet­to along with the rest of the Pol­ish Jew­ish pop­u­la­tion. Jakub is a jour­nal­ist work­ing hard to doc­u­ment all the heart­break­ing cur­rent events for pos­ter­i­ty; Bina\, an actress works for the resistance. \nMean­while\, the author turns to 1956 Hol­ly­wood to fol­low the sto­ry of actress Lena Brown­ing\, for­mer­ly known as Bina\, who is still oper­at­ing as a spy and assas­sin. She becomes inter­est­ed in Oper­a­tion Paper­clip\, a top-secret intel­li­gence pro­gram in which high-rank­ing Nazi sci­en­tists are being released from pun­ish­ment. Next we move to 2006\, when Lena Brown­ing is an old actress\, still known for her per­fect face. When Lena finds out that old ene­mies have sur­vived\, she is moved to work with Sien­na\, a fellow actress\, as a means of enact­ing a final vic­to­ry over the Nazis. \nThis book is a fast read\, with vivid descrip­tions of places and time peri­ods. \nWe Must Not Think of Ourselves is based on the story of Emanuel Ringelblum\, who began a secret project at the Warsaw Ghetto in 1941. The project’s name was “Oneg Shabbat” — the pleasure of the Sabbath. Its mission was to record interviews with confined Jews\, collect their testimonies\, archive them\, and pre­serve them for posterity. The central character is the teacher Adam Paskow\, who participates in this dangerous project and finds love\, risking his life. \nLisa Barr is The New York Times best­selling author of Woman on Fire\, The Unbreak­ables\, and the award-win­ning Fugi­tive Col­ors. She has served as an edi­tor for The Jerusalem Post\, man­ag­ing edi­tor of Today’s Chica­go Woman and Moment mag­a­zine\, and as an edi­tor and reporter for the Chica­go Sun-Times. She has appeared on Good Morn­ing Amer­i­ca and Today for her work as an author\, jour­nal­ist\, and blog­ger.

SUMMARY:Virtual Author Event: Normon H. Finklestein
DESCRIPTION:The first in a series of author events in conjunction with South Florida JCC’s. \nSay­ing No to Hate traces the his­to­ry of Amer­i­can anti­semitism and the Jew­ish community’s response. It offers us a deep­er under­stand­ing of how events in America’s past have informed the mete­oric rise in hatred and vio­lence we see today. \nFinkelstein’s book is not just a nar­ra­tive of oppres­sion. It also shares how the Amer­i­can Jew­ish com­mu­ni­ty\, through insti­tu­tions such as the Amer­i­can Jew­ish Com­mit­tee\, the ADL\, and Hil­lel\, have respond­ed to Jew­ish hatred. Say No to Hate offers read­ers an acces­si­ble intro­duc­tion to anti­semitism in Amer­i­ca. This is par­tic­u­lar­ly impor­tant for a gen­er­a­tion of Jews who\, until recent­ly\, were shield­ed from the overt anti­semitism that plagued Jew­ish Amer­i­cans of years past. \nNor­man H. (1941 – 2024) taught Jew­ish his­to­ry at Hebrew Col­lege for more than thir­ty-five years and is the author of twen­ty-one non­fic­tion his­to­ries and biogra­phies. Two of his books\, Heed­ing the Call and Forged in Free­dom\, won Nation­al Jew­ish Book Awards.

SUMMARY:Virtual Author Event: Jonathan Freedland- The Escape Artist
DESCRIPTION:Jonathan Freedland’s superb writing fills the reader with rage\, despair\, and admiration for the stubborn resistance of the human spirit. It is heart-wrenching to read the story of Rudolf Vrba\, who is a mere nineteen years of age\, and his fellow concentration camp inmate Fred Wetzler\, who is twenty-six. It is the spring of 1944\, and the two young men are enduring a harrowing incarceration in Auschwitz when the extraordinary happens. Melding their minds and spirits\, they hatch an outrageous plan: They will be the first Jews ever to escape from the highly guarded prison. Once the world knows\, they are certain that steps will be taken to save the Jews in Europe.

When a close relative falls ill\, Hannah and her young son\, Nicky\, decide to join him for the summer at Ashton Hall\, a historic manor house outside Cambridge\, England.

SUMMARY:Giola Diliberto - Literary Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Author Gioria Diliberto will present about her latest novel\, Coco at the Ritz\, at the the JCC’s February Literary Luncheon on Wednesday\, February 14 at 12:30 PM. \nThough her name is synonymous with elegance and chic\, the iconic Coco Chanel had a complicated dark side\, and in late August 1944\, as World War II drew to a close\, she was arrested and interrogated on charges of treason to France. What transpired during her interrogation\, who was present\, and why she was set free when so many other women who’d been involved with German men (willingly or otherwise) had their heads shaved or were imprisoned remains a mystery. \nIn this brilliantly insightful and compulsively enjoyable novel from the author of I Am Madame X\, Gioia Diliberto explores the motivations of this complex woman and portrays the gripping battle of wits that could have been her interrogation. Was Chanel truly a collaborator? \nGioia Dilib­er­to is the author of sev­en books and a play. Her writ­ing\, which focus­es on wom­en’s lives\, has been praised for com­bin­ing rich sto­ry­telling\, deep research\, and lit­er­ary grace. Her books have been trans­lat­ed into sev­er­al lan­guages\, and she has writ­ten for many pub­li­ca­tions. She also teach­es in the writ­ing pro­gram at North­west­ern Uni­ver­si­ty’s School of Pro­fes­sion­al Studies.

SUMMARY:Sharing Decorating Secrets with Vicente Wolf
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a special evening\, Wednesday\, November 1\, at 7:30 p.m. with the author of The Creative Interior Solutions. \nSharing Decorating Secrets with Vicente Wolf with an introduction and Q&A led by Karen Boyer\, founder of Elements in Play Fine Art Advisory \nThe Miami Beach JCC invites you to an engaging chat with interior design trailblazer\, Vicente Wolf. With nearly 50 years in the industry\, he will share myriad inspirations for his designs while walking you through client projects. Known for his relaxed\, elegant environments that incorporate one-of-a-kind pieces with antiques as well as objects found in his travels to remote parts of the world\, his designs maintain a fresh appeal that stands the test of time. From Cuban refugee to a successful designer\, Vicente will discuss personal tales of his experiences as well as design lessons covered in his new book\, CREATIVE INTERIOR SOLUTIONS (Rizzoli; April 2023)\, written by Margaret Russell\, former Editor in Chief of Architectural Digest with a foreword by Marianne Williamson\, a former client and presidential candidate. \nBook signing of his new book will follow the program. \nWhen Vicente Wolf left Cuba and landed in the United States in the 1960s\, he didn’t have a dime to his name or a plan for his life. But he did have an open mind\, a good sense of style\, and a willingness to work hard. \nWhen he discovered interior design in the 1970s\, there were kind mentors who helped him learn the business. In the decades since he’s had a distinguished design career spanning nearly five decades\, opened his VW Home showroom in New York\, written five books\, garnered all kinds of awards\, including having his name included on the AD100 list in 2016\, and earned the undeniable right to be referred to as a “legend.” \nKaren Boyer is a highly regarded art advisor and founder of Elements in Play Fine Art Advisory. She merges passion and strategy to elevate the collections of individuals and families\, ensuring their aesthetic\, financial\, and legacy goals are seamlessly met. Karen is based in Miami and covers the art market internationally. \nThis literary event was made possible with the generous support of Books & Books

SUMMARY:18 Days in October
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a special evening at Temple Menorah to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Yom Kippur War with author Uri Kaufman\, who will present his book- 18 Days in October: The Yom Kippur War and How it Created the Modern Middle East. \nIsraeli Consul General Maor Elbaz Starinsky is a special guest for the evening. \nOctober 2023 marks the 50th anniver­sary of the Yom Kip­pur War\, a conflict that shaped the modern Mid­dle East. The War was a trau­ma for Israel and fol­low­ing the oil embar­go\, a piv­otal reorder­ing of the glob­al eco­nom­ic order. The Jew­ish State came shock­ing­ly close to defeat. A pan­icky cab­i­net meet­ing debat­ed the use of nuclear weapons. After the war\, Prime Min­is­ter Gol­da Meir resigned in dis­grace\, and a 9/11-style com­mis­sion inves­ti­gat­ed the “deba­cle.” \nBut\, argues Uri Kauf­man\, from the perspective of a half cen­tu­ry\, the War can be seen as a piv­otal vic­to­ry for Israel. After nearly being rout­ed\, the Israel Defense Forces clawed its way back to threat­en Cairo and Dam­as­cus. In the War’s after­math\, both sides had to accept unwel­come truths: Israel could no longer take mil­i­tary supe­ri­or­i­ty for grant­ed — but the Arabs could no longer hope to wipe Israel off the map. A straight line leads from the bat­tle­fields of 1973 to the Camp David Accords of 1978 and all the treaties since.
