The next meeting of the Book Circle will be held on Wednesday, Dec.16, at 2 p.m., on Zoom. The selection for the month is The Book of Disappearance by Ibtisam Azem, translated from Arabic by Sinan Antoon.

This book, a translation of the critically acclaimed Arabic novel, invites English language readers into the complex lives of Palestinians living in Israel.

The Book Circle meets each month to explore books on Jewish themes and Jewish writers. For more information, call the shul at 631-477-0232 and leave a message for Susan Rosenstreich, coordinator of the group.
