Author Julie Orringer at the JCC

Named Best Book of the Year by the Boston Globe and Washington Post, The Invisible Bridge is a love story set against the backdrop of Budapest and Paris in the 1930s. It is a tale of three brothers whose lives are ravaged by war, and the chronicle of one family’s struggle against the forces that threaten to annihilate it.
