Our next book will be Tablets Shattered by Joshua Leifer. 
This controversial book explores the fractured American Jewish present and delves into the collapse of the settled-upon pillars of American Jewish self-definition, including Americanism, Zionism, and liberalism. The book also reflects on the universal quest to understand our divisive world and build enduring communities. You can read more about it here.  We present this book to our group as a conversation starter and an opportunity to wrestle with some of the challenges placed before us by this young Jewish author. Neither of us embrace all of the ideas presented by Leifer but we feel it is worthwhile to contemplate the questions he raises and how the Jewish community might prepare for the challenges of the next decades.  No doubt the conversation will be lively!
