Morning Book Club: Long Island Compromise by Taffy Brodesser-Akner In-Person

In 1980, wealthy businessman Carl Fletcher was kidnapped from his driveway, brutalized, and held for ransom. Returning to his wife and children less than a week later, he and his family resume their place in the American dream, comforted by the knowledge that while their money may have endangered them, it also ensured their safety. Long Island Compromise traces the sweep of one family’s history, confronting the pillars of American Jewish life and the unspoken love and shared experience that bind them forever. Librarian Neil will lead the discussion.
