"Retelling the Bible: Old Stories in New Containers."
Everyone in attendance will have a chance to win a
book prize pack!
Much
of Rabbi Sandy Eisenberg Sasso's writing takes narratives like Noah’s Ark, Cain
and Abel, Creation and reimagines them in light of contemporary issues and
concerns. In Judaism, this follows the interpretive tradition of Midrash,
which fills in the spaces left blank by tradition. This and much more will be
discussed in this unique speaking event.
Join Shelby Couch, Teen and Adult Services Librarian, for
this virtual speaking presentation and discussion with Rabbi Sandy Eisenberg
Sasso from the Indiana Humanities Novel Conversations speakers program. The
conversation with the Eugene and Marilyn Glick Indiana Authors Award honoree is
part of the Novel Conversations Speakers Program, sponsored by Indiana
Humanities with support from Glick Philanthropies.
