‘My Father’s Paradise: A Journey into Jewish Kurdistan’
Hosted By: Orange County Jewish Community Scholar Program ("CSP")
The Community Scholar Program presents a conversation with journalist and author Ariel Sabar about his award-winning book “My Father’s Paradise: A Son’s Search for His Jewish Past in Kurdish Iraq.” Blending memoir and history, the book follows Sabar and his father—a Jewish scholar from a remote Kurdish village—as they uncover the story of one of the world’s oldest and most isolated Jewish communities. Through themes of identity, exile, and belonging, Sabar offers a powerful exploration of heritage and the ties that connect generations.
