The Arrogant Years: One Girl's Search for Her Lost Youth, from Cairo to Brooklyn
by Lucette Lagnado
We had previously read and enjoyed her book, The Man in the White Sharkskin Suit: A Jewish Family's Exodus from Old Cairo to the New World (P.S.) and since she recently died in July 2019 the members who were at the August meeting felt this would be an appropriate tribute.
For January 8, 2020
we are considering a book by Natalia Ginsberg based on availability in Library and online. Natalia Ginzburg (1916-1991) is today recognized as one of the foremost woman writers to emerge from twentieth-century Italy.
