Young Israel Book Club

Monday, November 19, 2018 11 Kislev 5779

8:00 PM - 9:30 PM110 Ames Street, Sharon, MA 02067

In honor of the 100th birthday of Leonard Bernstein (American composer, conductor, author, music lecturer, and pianist, who was born in Lawrence, MA, in 1918), our next YI Book Club selection will be Family Matters: Sam, Jennie and the Kids by Burton Bernstein. Family Matters, originally in the New Yorker, is about the Bernsteins — Sam, the father; Jennie, the mother; and their three children: Leonard, Shirley and Burton, the book's author. In this updated edition, Burton intimately recounts the family's roots, its trials, and the stunning success of his older brother, whose worldwide celebrity changed all their lives. (from Amazon.com; https://www.amazon.com/Family-Matters-Sam-Jennie-Kids/dp/0595133428) All book club books may be purchased from Amazon through the link on the YI website, which will provide Young Israel with 10 percent of the purchase price. We also try to ensure that there are sufficient copies available through the Sharon Public Library system for all of our Book Club selections. New members are always welcome. Hope to see you there!
