Joan Beren, zichrona livracha, was a beloved and regular participant in this class for many years. Each fall, as we inaugurate a new year of study, we begin with a short tribute to Joan, a person who embodied both a love of Jewish texts and a love of Jewish life. She was an inspiration to those of us who knew her, and her memory continues to be a blessing for us.
This fall, we’ll read Edith Pearlman’s Honeydew: Read 1-2 short stories per week and discuss in depth. **Please note that Sept. 19 and Dec. 5 class will begin at 10:30am.
