yen if you haven't had time to pick up a
book all year, when summer comes most
people get the itch to read. Whether
you're spending the summer in your own back
yard or vacationing near or far from home, the
Jewish News has chosen some of the best new
releases of the past year from Jewish authors or
with Jewish themes for your pleasure.
This year's annual summer reading roundup
includes such diverse titles as Michael Chabon's
The Yiddish Policeman's Union, a hard-boiled
Frozen Chosen detective story that's an hom-
age to 1940s noir; Nathan Englander's The
Ministry of Special Cases, a historical novel set
in Argentina of a society gone awry, with ele-
ments of magical realism; and 97-year-old Harry
Bernstein's The Invisible Wall, a deeply affect-
ing, lyrical memoir of the author's early life in
Lancashire, England.
Whatever's your pleasure, you can find it
between the covers of a book. So rediscover the
splendors of summer reading.
