Community Book Club—The Choice: Embrace the Possible by Edith Eva Eger

Are you looking to connect with others? Do you love reading all kinds of books? If you answered yes, the Community Book Club is for you!

This month’s book is The Choice: Embrace the Possible, a memoir published in 2017 by Edith Eva Eger, psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor

After enduring anti-Semitism, cruelty, communism, and xenophobia, Eger integrates the lessons that she learned to show how everyone can choose freedom and halt cycles of suffering. The memoir incorporates World War II history and psychological analysis into Eger’s story of survival, recovery, and joy. The Choice has received the Christopher Award, which acknowledges books, films, and TV that “affirm the highest value of the human spirit,” and the National Jewish Book Award. 

The Community Book Club meets every other Thursday evening, beginning March 2, via Zoom.

To register, send an email to community@iit.edu, and you will receive the meeting credentials.
