SUMMARY:Jewish Fantasy & Science  Fiction Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Jewish Fantasy & Science Fiction Book Club \nWednesday\, April 24\, 8:00 pm \nOur exploration of Jewish Fantasy and Science Fiction continues with Gentlemen of the Road: A Tale of Adventure by Michael Chabon \nEssen­tial­ly a bud­dy sto­ry\, it’s a Jew­ish tale and a dynasty saga set in the Khaz­ar Empire in about the year 950. The char­ac­ters man­age to be both broad car­i­ca­ture and all-too-human at the same time. In true mag­a­zine-ser­i­al style\, cliffhang­er sus­pense abounds\, keep­ing the read­er as breath­less as the char­ac­ters who leap on and off hors­es\, throw unerr­ing spears and wield mighty swords. But it’s not only the sto­ry that makes this expe­ri­ence spe­cial; it’s the phys­i­cal book itself that makes this old-time bib­lio­phile smile. End­pa­pers with maps of the ter­ri­to­ry\, black and white illus­tra­tions with a line of text run­ning below\, a list of illus­tra­tions fol­low­ing the table of con­tents\, the print font\, itself\, as well as count­less oth­er touch­es are all rem­i­nis­cent of the days when a book looked and smelled and felt like a reflec­tion of his­to­ry. \n(Read the full review at The Jewish Book Council) \nJoin in the conversation at our regular Zoom link — and spread the word; all are warmly invited to join for this evening of conversation and magic!
