April 18 - “The Convert” by Stefan Hertmans, David McKay In this dazzling work of historical fiction, the Booker International-longlisted author of War and Turpentine reconstructs the tragic story of a Medieval Christian noblewoman who abandoned her life for the love of a Jewish boy.
The Middle Ages have just begun when Vigdis Adelas, a young woman from a prosperous French family, falls in love with David Todros, a student at the city's yeshiva, and the son of a rabbi. To be together, they must flee their city, Vigdis renouncing a life of privilege and comfort. Pursued by her father's knights and in constant danger of betrayal, the lovers embark on a dangerous journey to the south of France, only to find their brief happiness destroyed by the vicious wave of anti-Semitism that sweeps Europe with the onset of the First Crusade. Stefan Hertmans meticulously retraces Vigdis's epic journey, first across France and then beyond, to Palermo and the Middle East. Blending fact and fiction, and with immense imagination and stylistic ingenuity, he painstakingly imagines her terrible trials, bringing the Middle Ages to life, and illuminating a chaotic world of passion, hate, love, and death.

Israel @ 75
Last Friday, Rabbi Leib addressed the critical issues roiling Israel politics and society. You can watch here. _____________________________________________________________ In the late 19th century, a Russian emigré to Palestine had the crazy notion that Hebrew should be the spoken and written everyday language for Jews in the Holy Land. You can watch his great-grandson, Dr. Zach Kassuto, tell the story of how Ben-Yehudah almost single-handedly revived the ancient language, spoken by millions in the State of Israel. Watch the recording of Sunday's program, "The Birth of modern Hebrew".
