Description

Join acclaimed Jewish Latin American authors and longtime friends Marjorie Agosin and Ruth Behar as they talk about their explorations of the voyages of memory in their fiction and other writing.

Marjorie will speak about her memoir, A Cross and a Star: Memoirs of a Jewish Girl in Chile, which tells the story of her mother’s memory growing up in the south of Chile with pro-Nazi German settlers, as well as her most recent book, Aldo Izzo and the Jewish Cemetery of the Lido.
