SUMMARY:JEWISH AUTHORS & IDEAS SERIES: Andrew Ridker
DESCRIPTION:JCC MetroWest presents\, Andrew Ridker\, “Hope”\nRidker’s slashing satire of upper-middle-class life turns on the foibles of a seemingly charmed Jewish family in Brookline\, Mass. Scott Greenspan is a well-respected cardiac surgeon. His wife\, Deb\, is known for her good work on various school and synagogue activities. Their daughter\, Maya\, works at a prestigious New York publishing house\, while her younger brother\, Gideon\, is a biology major at Columbia and hopes to become a doctor. The Greenspans’ perfect facade is shattered after Scott is caught falsifying data on a clinical trial. Ridker’s account of characters in free fall is painfully funny\, filled with cringeworthy scenes that expose them at their most needy. Yet he never loses sight of their basic humanity. (Publisher’s Weekly) \nBook group discussion at 12:00 PM\nAuthor presentation at 1:00 PM \nBook Group discussion and conversation with the author will be available either in person or on Zoom for participants; author will present via Zoom. \nFREE \nREGISTER HERE\n\n\nIN PARTNERSHIP WITH: \n \n \n
