SUMMARY:BOOK CLUB MEETING
DESCRIPTION:Our next meeting will be Sunday\, April 24 at 12:30pm in the comfort of your own home via Zoom!\nWe will be discussing Dara Horn ‘s People Love Dead Jews: Reports for a Haunted Present \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/88461762498?pwd=S2M1WEhQZmc1a05vcmRTTHlvV3I1Zz09 \nMeeting ID: 884 6176 2498\nPasscode: 1955 \nPODCAST \nAdventures with Dead Jews \nThis companion podcast to Dara Horn’s new book People Love Dead Jews takes listeners beyond the book to some of the strangest corners of Jewish history\, exploring how the popular mania for dead Jews warps our understanding of both past and present. Produced by Tablet Studios and SoulShop. \nSYNOPSIS\n\nRenowned and beloved as a prizewinning novelist\, Dara Horn has also been publishing penetrating essays since she was a teenager. Often asked by major publications to write on subjects related to Jewish culture—and increasingly in response to a recent wave of deadly antisemitic attacks—Horn was troubled to realize what all of these assignments had in common: she was being asked to write about dead Jews\, never about living ones. In these essays\, Horn reflects on subjects as far-flung as the international veneration of Anne Frank\, the mythology that Jewish family names were changed at Ellis Island\, the blockbuster traveling exhibition Auschwitz\, the marketing of the Jewish history of Harbin\, China\, and the little-known life of the “righteous Gentile” Varian Fry. Throughout\, she challenges us to confront the reasons why there might be so much fascination with Jewish deaths\, and so little respect for Jewish lives unfolding in the present. \nHorn draws upon her travels\, her research\, and also her own family life—trying to explain Shakespeare’s Shylock to a curious ten-year-old\, her anger when swastikas are drawn on desks in her children’s school\, the profound perspective offered by traditional religious practice and study—to assert the vitality\, complexity\, and depth of Jewish life against an antisemitism that\, far from being disarmed by the mantra of “Never forget\,” is on the rise. As Horn explores the (not so) shocking attacks on the American Jewish community in recent years\, she reveals the subtler dehumanization built into the public piety that surrounds the Jewish past—making the radical argument that the benign reverence we give to past horrors is itself a profound affront to human dignity. \nWinner of the 2021 National Jewish Book Award for Con­tem­po­rary Jew­ish Life and Prac­tice\nFinalist for the 2021 Kirkus Prize in Nonfiction \nA New York Times Notable Book of the Year A Wall Street Journal\, Chicago Public Library\, Publishers Weekly\, and Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year \nA startling and profound exploration of how Jewish history is exploited to comfort the living. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nDara Horn is the award-winning author of six books\, including the novels In the Image (Norton 2002)\, The World to Come (Norton 2006)\, All Other Nights (Norton 2009)\, A Guide for the Perplexed (Norton 2013)\, and Eternal Life (Norton 2018)\, and the essay collection People Love Dead Jews: Reports from a Haunted Present (Norton 2021).
