Writing Jewish: A Discussion with Nicole Krauss and Joshua Cohen

Hosted By: Jewish Theological Seminary of America (JTS)

Jews have always been writers of books—from books for Jews with self-consciously Jewish content to books with no obvious Jewish consciousness directed toward the general reading public. But there are also authors who create worlds filled with Jews (and others) who embody human experiences with a Jewish twist for readers of all kinds. Two of the most outstanding such contemporary writers are Joshua Cohen and Nicole Krauss, who will join JTS Professor and Librarian David Kraemer to discuss what it means to “write Jewish” in today’s world. Join us for what promises to be an unforgettable exchange.
