JReads -JFS’s Deb Rosen Discusses Send For Me

What is Jewish Rochester reading?

Come to JReads, our community book review group, and find out!

Join JFS President and CEO, Deb Rosen as she discusses Lauren Fox’s novel, Send for Me. From the NY Times Book Review: “Send for Me” delves into the history of a single family, spanning four generations and two continents. It is Fox’s fourth novel, written with what she acknowledges is a fair amount of autobiographical influence. (She notes that the earliest iteration of the story was a memoir she wrote for her master’s thesis; the excerpts from letters scattered through the text were written by Fox’s great-grandmother.) And, over all, the book is a real achievement — beautifully written, deeply felt, tender and thoughtful.
