Event Details

Jerusalem is the spiritual heart of three great religions as well as a place of enduring discord. It’s also the inspiration for new novels by two San Diego authors: Here There Is No Why by Phil Graubart, former Senior Rabbi at Congregation Beth El in La Jolla, and Rooftop in Jerusalem by Michael Kinnamon, former General Secretary of the National Council of Churches. Their unique presentation will touch on the power of fiction to bridge social divisions, the importance of interfaith understanding at a time when politics seems fractured, and the city of Jerusalem as a symbol of longing and conflict.
