Oct. 31: Inheriting the Holy Land: An American’s Search for Hope in the Middle East



A talk with author and journalist Jennifer Miller

When: Monday, 31 October, 7:30 PM

Where: Arthur M. Glick Jewish Community Center, 6701 Hoover Road, Indianapolis

Jennifer Miller is young author of Inheriting the Holy Land. I have been impressed with her pieces in Salon.com. Say the organizers of this event:

"Writing with fierce honesty, Jennifer Miller has created an extraordinary synthesis of history, reportage, and coming-of-age memoir in Inheriting the Holy Land. Her groundbreaking perspective on the conflict is presented through interviews with young Israelis and Palestinians and conversations with some of the most influential officials involved in the Middle East, including Shimon Peres, Yasir Arafat, James Baker, Benjamin Netanyahu, Colin Powell, Ehud Barak, and Mahmoud Abbas." I think it will be a good one.
