Previously, I might have rejected it on the premise that one memoir about mixed-race parents was enough. But now, I was eager to learn more.  "Black, White, and Jewish" turned out to be invigorating, another excellent read, and another window into one of my favorite topics, an individual's search for identity.]]></description>

Persuading others to read what we've written seems daunting and foreign, unrelated to the central project. And so when writers get together, in addition to discussing their craft, they also ponder the challenges of reaching readers.]]></description>
