JEWISH AUTHORS & IDEAS SERIES: Peter Blauner

June 5 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

JCC MetroWest presents, Peter Blauner, “Picture in the Sand”

Peter Blauner’s epic Picture in the Sand is a sweeping intergenerational saga told through a grandfather’s passionate letters to his grandson, passing on the story of his political rebellion in 1950s Egypt in order to save his grandson’s life in a post-9/11 world.

When Alex Hassan gets accepted to an Ivy League university, his middle-class Egyptian-American family is filled with pride and excitement. But that joy turns to shock when they discover that he’s run off to the Middle East to join a holy war instead. When he refuses to communicate with everyone else, his loving grandfather Ali emails him one last plea. If Alex will stay in touch, his grandfather will share with Alex – and only Alex – a manuscript containing the secret story of his own life that he’s kept hidden from his family, until now.

Book group discussion at 12:00 PM
Author presentation at 1:00 PM

Book Group discussion and conversation with the author will be available either in person or on Zoom for participants; author will present via Zoom.
