My Husband is in America: Yiddish Poetry of Place and Displacement

Hosted By: Temple Emanu-El, Haverhill MA

Join Professor Jessica Kirzane as Temple Emanu El explores poetry that captures the emotional turmoil of the migration experience. They will read a selection of poets (in English translation), some widely celebrated and some more obscure, and uncover the anger, pain, longing, and hope that their writing expresses.
