Apply For Great Jewish Book Summer Program For the past three summers, Josh Lambert has spent a week teaching great works of contemporary Jewish literature to high school students. And the stories studied at the Great Jewish Books Summer Program, a tuition-free residen- tial program at the Yiddish Book Center in Amherst, Mass., have particular resonance for the par- ticipants, leading them to consider important questions about what it means to be Jewish, said Lambert, the Center's academic director. The Great Jewish Books Summer Program introduces students to a wide range of modern Jewish nov- elists, poets and short-story writers, ranging from Franz Kafka to Philip Roth, Sholem Aleichem to Grace Paley, in classes taught by college professors. The program is open to rising high school juniors and seniors. All students accepted receive full schol- arships covering tuition, room and board, books and special events. This year's program will be Aug. 2-9. Applications are due April 1. To apply, visit yiddishbookcenter. org/great-jewish-books.
