Calendar

I will be teaching a class on the Jewish short story on Tuesday evenings, from 7:30 – 8:30 beginning on Tuesday, March 28 via Zoom. This class will begin with two familiar stories from the Bible. Then we will look at a number of midrashic tales from the rabbinic period. After that we will discuss stories from Reb Nahman of Bretzlav. I have some wonderful Yiddish stories (translated), some American-Jewish stories (Malamud, Roth), and finally modern Israeli authors (Agnon, Keret, and Amos Oz).

I will begin by trying to define what is a “Jewish” short story. Each week I will send out to the entire congregation a copy of the story(ies) that we will be discussing that week. That way, you can be familiar with the story and enjoy them, whether or not you are attending the class.

I have always been interested in literature, especially Jewish literature, and I enjoy analyzing stories and hearing what others think about them. Please try to clear your Tuesday evenings for this hour of learning together.

Looking forward to the 28th!
