Bookends With Sisterhood Returns!

Thursday, January 4th // 7:00 pm // Zoom

We will be discussing Kantika by Elizabeth Graver.

Elizabeth Graver began writing her fifth novel,
<https://www.amazon.com/Kantika-Novel-Elizabeth-Graver/dp/1250869846>
Kantika, in 2014, but the Turkish Sephardic dressmaker at the heart of the
multi-generational, continent-spanning saga has been with her for a
lifetime. That’s because she was inspired by Graver’s maternal grandmother,
Rebecca (née Cohen) Baruch Levy.

The discussion will be moderated by Sara Sherman.

This Week’s Tip from

The CBI Alliance for Sustainability

"A change in the weather is sufficient to recreate the world and ourselves."
Marcel Proust

As winter approaches, conserve energy. Check for drafts around windows and
doors.
<https://nj.pseg.com/saveenergyandmoney/energysavingpage/winterenergytips>
https://nj.pseg.com/saveenergyandmoney/energysavingpage/winterenergytips

Ceiling fans aren’t just for keeping cool in the summer.  Reverse the
direction of the fan to push the warm air down during the winter.
