Love reading? Join us for Sefer Club. Each month we will be reading a Jewish book and discussing it as a group.
This month, the book is "The Golem And the Jinni". Chava is a golem, a creature made of clay, brought to life by a disgraced rabbi who dabbles in dark Kabbalistic magic, created to be the wife of a man who dies at sea on the voyage from Poland. Chava is unmoored and adrift as the ship arrives in New York harbor in 1899.
