Endowed Symposia in Jewish Studies at UCSB
READING: An Evening with Allegra Goodman
Monday, May 26 / 7:30 PM
Congregation B’nai B’rith,
1000 San Antonio Creek Road
Compared to Saul Bellow and Philip Roth on the pages of Time and called “a prodigy” by The Wall Street Journal, Allegra Goodman’s rise through the ranks of contemporary American novelists has been breathtaking. She is the author of Intuition and Paradise Park, which were selected as New York Times Notable Books, Kaaterskill Falls which was a bestselling National Book Award finalist, and the acclaimed short story collection, The Family Markowitz. Courtesy of Borders, copies of her books will be available for purchase and signing at this event.
Sponsored by the Herman P. and Sophia Taubman Foundation Endowed Symposia in Jewish Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara, a program of the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center, UCSB Arts & Lectures, the Dept. of Religious Studies, Congregation B’nai B’rith, and Santa Barbara Hillel.
