JCC MetroWest presents, Esther Chehebar, Sisters of Fortune

The Cohen sisters—Fortune, the middle sister, preparing for her upcoming arranged marriage; Nina, the 26-year-old eldest, struggling with single life and newfound career opportunities; and Lucy, a high school senior sneaking around with a much older bachelor—are members of the tight-knit Syrian Jewish community in Brooklyn. The novel offers a heartfelt, witty exploration of sisterhood, cultural identity, romantic and personal ambition, and the tension between tradition and autonomy.
