I offered to forward this to hasafran. This is not a review, on my part, as I have not read it, yet. But, it looked of interest to AJL folks.
Ann Abrams, Librarian Temple Israel, Boston >>Dear Ann, >> >>I'm writing to follow up on our correspondence from February about >>my new young-adult book, The Blood Lie (Cinco Puntos Press). This >>novel is based on a real blood libel that happened in Upstate New >>York in 1928. A small girl disappeared just before Yom Kippur, and >>the local Jews were accused of murdering her and baking her blood >>in their "holiday foods." The blood libel happened in my hometown >>when my father was growing up there, so I was able to draw from >>first-hand accounts. >> >>I wanted to let you know that The Blood Lie is now available for >>order. I hope you'll consider making it an addition to the Temple >>Israel library. >> >>The study guide for The Blood Lie can be found online at >>bloodlibel.org. The book itself is available through Amazon, >>IndieBound and other major sites. Thanks so much, and please feel >>free to contact me with any questions. Hope you're having a great summer. >> >>Best, >> >>Shirley Vernick >>The Blood Lie >>ISBN 978-1933693842 --- Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) =========================================================== Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: hasaf...@osu.edu SUBscribing, SIGNOFF commands send to: Listproc @ lists.acs.ohio-state.edu Questions, problems, complaints, compliments;-) send to: galron.1 @ osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html History: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/history.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org
