Meet the Author – Calgary Jewish Book Festival – December 7, 2014
“Before I met Adam Tredman, I thought only sailors swore. At least that was the way it was in the books I was starting to read. His swearing made almost as big an impression on me as his poetry. And then there was his religion, which, so far as I could tell, was an essential part of him but went mostly unobserved. He and his family were the first Jews I had ever known, and for the longest time I thought all Jews must be like Adam Tredman, speaking as if they’d all just walked out of the desert and were making up for lost time.” – Excerpt from Sons and Fathers
I will be appearing at the Jewish Book Festival being held at the Calgary Jewish Community Centre on December 7 from 4:00-5:30pm.
I’ll be discussing some of the themes in Sons and Fathers and reading from the novel. Here’s more info:

Thanks to Michael Hare of The Owl’s Nest for inviting me, and to all my friends and family who showed up to celebrate the launch of my first book and ask me tough questions! It was a very special evening.
