Due to technical difficulties, this month’s Book Club meeting has been rescheduled to Monday, January 23 at 7:30pm (EST). For Zoom information, please contact Suzanne Levy Graver at [email protected].
Join the CBI Book Club via Zoom to discuss Bread Givers (1925) by Anzia Yezierska, probably the first novel to be published in America by an immigrant Jewish female writer. A proto-feminist book, Bread Givers dramatizes the struggle between a father of the Old World and a daughter of the New seeking to free herself from the “woman’s role” assigned to her by men, paralleling in many ways Yezierska’s own journey.
