Qesher Book Club: ‘Family Declassified’
Hosted By: Qesher
The Qesher Book Club will discuss “Family Declassified,” in which social scientist Katherine Fennelly examines the rationale and consequences of family secrets through the story of her grandfather, Francis Kalnay, a high-level spy for the Allied forces in Europe. In 1954, Francis abandoned his family and fled to Mexico, where he reinvented himself as a children’s book author, architect, and gourmand, never speaking of his Jewish ancestry, his espionage work, or the murder of his sister and nephew by Hungarian fascists.
