Kehilat Hadar's Book Club will meet on Monday, September 14 at 8:00 p.m. at unWined at Symphony Space on 95th Street between Broadway and West End.

The group will discuss The Ministry of Special Cases by Nathan Englander.

 
From its unforgettable opening scene in the darkness of a forgotten cemetery in Buenos Aires, The Ministry of Special Cases casts a powerful spell. In the heart of Argentina’s Dirty War, Kaddish Poznan struggles with a son who won’t accept him; strives for a wife who forever saves him; and spends his nights protecting the good name of a community that denies his existence--and denies a checkered history that only Kaddish holds dear. When the nightmare of the disappeared children brings the Poznan family to its knees, they are thrust into the unyielding corridors of the Ministry of Special Cases, the refuge of last resort.
