An Evening with Author, Lior Samson
The community is invited to the Jewish Book Group of the North Shore for an evening with Lior Samson, who will discuss his new book, Distant Sons, the dramatic story of Miriam and Magdalena, a mother and daughter from different worlds in different times, and the choices they face: questions of love, commitment, fulfillment, and survival.

You are invited to bring a photo from your family’s collection that holds personal significance for you.
