TBA Book Group: The Jump Artist

Join Rabbi Clifford Kulwin for his stimulating monthly book group. On Thursday, September 8, 7:30 PM   The Jump Artist by Austin Ratner will be discussed. Famed photographer Philippe Halsman—his models included Marilyn Monroe for Life—was the subject of Austria’s own Dreyfuss affair when he was wrongfully accused of killing his father in 1928. A rising Nazism, Austria’s own anti-Semitic past and an early 20th century Europe that just didn’t know what to make of the Jews contribute to this important piece of historical fiction.
