Hadassah Young Women's Council Hosting Author Tova Mirvis

The Hadassah Northeast Young Women's Council is hosting bestselling author Tova Mirvis at Cafe Landwer in Brighton on Thursday, August 1 at 7:00 p.m.

Tova will be discussing her latest book, The Book of Separation, as well as other topics while attendees enjoy some delicious Israeli food from Cafe Landwer.

The Book of Separation has received critical acclaim from many outlets, including The New York Times, which wrote "An intimate tale of departure….[Tova Mirvis] movingly conveys the heartache that accompanies the abandonment of one way of life in search of another.”

The Chicago Tribune also wrote in a review, “Capable of both wry humor and darkly apt turns of phrase, Mirvis is a gifted writer reflecting on her identity: first through the prism of organized religion, then through a self-charted life.”

Cost is $25 or $37, which includes a copy of The Book of Separation. To RSVP, visit www.hadassah.org/events/letsread or contact Hadassah Northeast at 781-455-9055 or hne@hadassah.org.

The Hadassah Northeast Young Women's Council hosts events for women age 40ish and under.
