*Aspasia is a Syrian restaurant. I'm checking with the restaurant about reservations, and I recall paying at the cashier so I think individual checks are possible.* UPDATING this to recommend that attendees at least get an appetizer or maybe you'll want one of their delicious coffees. For this event, you must keep your RSVP up to date, no shows will be removed. Book Club where we will read from a choice of books that cover a different theme each month. This month's theme is Arab-American Authors/Experience. April is Arab-American Heritage Month and Arab-Americans come from many different countries of origin. Here is some information about it: https://www.arabamerica.com/who-started-the-movement-for-national-arab-american-heritage-month-history-and-legacy/ https://www.arabamerica.com/arab-americans/ (please note: Not all Arabs are Muslim and Not all Muslims are Arab. For example, I have seen book lists that mistakenly include Pakistani and Iranian authors. Iranians are not Arab: https://surfiran.com/mag/why-is-iran-not-an-arab-country/ and Pakistanis are South Asians) Pick one of these books to read and discuss! If you're motivated to read more than one, go for it! If you want to read or discuss a different book not listed here on the theme, feel free to share that book with the group. If you don't have time to read any of the books, but want to listen and/or partake in the discussion anyway, feel free! * *The Stardust Thief* by Chelsea Abdullah * The Thirty Names of Night *by Zeyn Joukhadar* * Alligator and Other Stories \*by Dima Alzayat * Three Worlds: Memoirs of an Arab-Jew *by Avi Shlaim (Not American, but British; born in Baghdad and grew up in Israel, we don't get many Jewish Arab perspectives)* * When We Were Arabs: A Jewish Family'sโฆ
