Qesher Book Club: ‘The Sweet Fragrance of Life & Other Horror Stories’
Hosted By: Qesher
Renowned Jewish vocalist and writer Elizabeth Schwartz’s first book of fiction, “The Sweet Fragrance of Life & Other Stories,” is a meditation on historic European Jewish culture seen through the lens of a woman’s point of view. She will read excerpts from her stories and talk about the religious, cultural, and historical factors that shaped them and her approach to traditional Jewish art. The author weaves in rich historical particulars, from the political climate of decades past to an account of a real-life incident that inspired one of the tales.
