All patrons and friends of the Charlotte Hobbs Memorial Library are welcome to join

Page Turners, the Library’s book discussion group. In April, we will be discussing

Dancing Arabs (2002) by acclaimed novelist and screenwriter Sayed Kashua, the coming-

of-age story of a Palestinian boy growing up in Israel and especially his journey from the

Arab town of Tira to a prestigious and primarily Jewish prep school in Jerusalem. We

will follow Dancing Arabs in May with a discussion of Anglo-Palestinian writer Isabella

Hammad’s 2024 novel Enter Ghost. And in June, we reach back to Victorian England to

read Anne Brontë’s The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1848), a daring novel by the least

known of thew Brontë sisters.

Page Turners maintains a discussion list through which members receive background

information and discussion questions for each book selection. Please contact Sue Lanser

(925-6244 or lanser@brandeis.edu) if you would like to learn more about the group or

wish to join our mailing list. With occasional exceptions, we meet on the second Monday

of each month.
