Book Group Event with author

Goyhood by Reuven Fenton

The fictional story of twin brothers raised in Georgia who discover they are Jewish at the age of 12 – one brother becomes a yeshiva student in Brooklyn while the other brother takes a different non-religious path. They reconnect on the event of their mother’s death and set off on a road trip in the South. At times reflective and other times humorous, the novel is a quick, enjoyable read. Reuven Fenton is uniquely qualified to write this book as an Orthodox Jew who works as a reporter for the New York Post. Seaside member Robert Weintraub will conduct the interview.
