WilshiReaders: Who By Fire by Matti Friedman
Everyone is welcome to join Great Books Facilitator Rochelle Ginsburg to discuss Matti Friedman's book, Who by Fire.
The little-known story of Leonard Cohen's concert tour to the front lines of the Yom Kippur War, including never-before-seen selections from an unfinished manuscript by Cohen and rare photographs.
In Who by Fire, journalist Matti Friedman gives us a riveting account of those weeks in the Sinai, drawing on Cohen's previously unpublished writing and original reporting to create a kaleidoscopic depiction of a harrowing, formative moment for both a young country at war and a singer at a crossroads.
