The Migdal Chapter of Hadassah at North Shore Towers presents…
Book club discussion of “The Bridal Chair”
about Chagall and family
Here’s what the critics
are saying about “The Bridal
Chair” by Gloria Goldreich:
“Goldreich’s portrait of a major
artist and his daughter is fascinating.”
– Booklist
“Filled with fascinating details about
the art world and colorful real-life
characters, this novel may appeal to
historical fiction fans who enjoyed
Natasha Solomons’s ‘The House at
Tyneford’ and Tatiana de Rosnay’s
‘Sarah’s Key’.”
– Library Journal
“Only Gloria Goldreich
could write a novel so
grounded in historical
truths, yet so exuberantly
imaginative.
‘The Bridal Chair’ is
Goldreich at her best,
with a mesmerizing
plot, elegant images,
and a remarkable heroine
who... will remain
with you long after the
last page.”
– Francine Klagsburn, Jewish
Week columnist and
acclaimed author of “Voices of
Wisdom”
The Migdal/Hadassah Book Club will meet on
Wednesday, November 15 at 2 p.m. in the Coleridge
Lounge to discuss “The Bridal Chair: A Novel” by
Gloria Goldreich.
According to noted author and reviewer, Cynthia
Ozik, “In prose as painterly and evocative as Chagall’s
own dazzling brush strokes, Gloria Goldreich finely
evokes one of the most significant masters of modern
art through the discerning eyes of his loyally protective
daughter.”
Brimming with historic personalities from Europe,
America and Israel, “The Bridal Chair” offers a portrait
of love, fortitude and the sharp divide between
art and real life.
“The Bridal Chair” is available in paperback and
on Kindle. All are welcome to attend.
