Jewish Literary Links for Shabbat
Last week, I mentioned that I wouldn’t make it to the Amos Oz event at the 92nd Street Y. But Andrew Silow-Carroll was there.
Fantastic interview with author Allegra Goodman on her own (and others’) Jewish fiction. (via @realdelia)
Beth Kissileff reports on an International Conference on the Life and Work of Aharon Appelfeld, held October 26 and 27 at the University of Pennsylvania. Appelfeld was in attendance.
Over on the Literary Commentary blog, D.G. Myers argues that fantasy is a genre of Christianity.
A reminder that I’ll be speaking as a guest of the Jewish Historical Society of New York on Sunday, November 13. The topic: “Looking Backward: History, the Holocaust, and Literary Writing in the Third Generation.”
Shabbat shalom!
