While it has been said, ”there is nothing new under the sun,” and the story of King David has been told many times, Geraldine Brooks’ latest novel "The Secret Chord" ( “a thundering, gritty, emotionally devastating reconsideration of the story of King David”) makes “a masterly case for the generative power of retelling.”

Please join us as we meet right before the High Holy Days, and what a special time to discuss a book that enables readers to feel the spirit of King David’s place and thus perhaps of our place! Copies of The Secret Chord are available at the Levine-Sklut and Public Libraries, and on-line for less than $20.
