Author Abigail Pogrebin spent a year focused on the foundational purpose and current relevance of the milestones on the Jewish calendar, and the result is a book that is thoughtful, informative, and often very funny. In the spirit of her exploration, we'll be taking our time to discuss her book throughout the year, using the holidays to guide our meetings. Our first conversation will look at the opening chapters, which focus on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

The book is available on Amazon
