A Look Inside the Syrian Jewish Community with Author Corie Adjmi
Karen sits down with author Corie Adjmi for a fascinating look at the Syrian Jewish community. Corie’s new novel, The Marriage Box, draws on her own experiences moving from a Reform upbringing in New Orleans to a traditional Orthodox Syrian life in Brooklyn as a teenager - and along the way, it shines a spotlight on a close-knit Jewish community that can seem mysterious to outsiders. Corie shares how she got started writing in her 30s after a career in education, why family is at the heart of Judaism, how she’s learned to balance her own desires with her culture’s expectations, and so much more.
You’ll find out:
- What it’s like being part of an incredibly close-knit Jewish community
- Why it’s so important to highlight diverse Jewish voices
- What inspired Corie to start writing
- How the Syrian community is evolving in the 21st century
- Corie’s advice for aspiring writers
- What makes the Syrian Jewish community so special
- Corie’s tips for a quick Friday night dinner
