The CAA Book Club
“Songs for the Brokenhearted”
Sunday, March 1st at 10:15am

 

Published in 2024, Songs for the Brokenhearted by Ayelet Tsbari is described by Hadassah Magazine as “a sweeping multigenerational novel about the complex history of Yemeni Jews in Israel and the music at the heart of it.” This debut novel weaves together two timelines, one in 1950’s Israel where Yemeni immigrants struggle in crowded camps and the other in 1990’s New York where a young doctoral student learns of her mother’s death and returns to Israel to mourn. While going through her mother’s belongings, she discovers tapes of her mother’s singing, as well as secrets from the past.

View Hadassah’s interview with Ayelet Tsbari HERE.

As usual, we will gather in the downstairs social hall at CAA at about 10:15 a.m. to share goodies (often bagels) and start the discussion at 10:30. All are welcome!
