Set in London of the 1660s and the early twenty-first century, The Weight of Ink by Rachel Kadish is the interwoven tale of two women of remarkable intellect: Ester Velasquez, an emigrant from Amsterdam who is permitted to scribe for a blind rabbi, just before the plague hits the city; and Helen Watt, an ailing historian with a love of Jewish history. Electrifying and ambitious, this National Jewish Book Award-winner is about women separated by centuries—and the choices and sacrifices they must make in order to reconcile the life of the heart and mind. Enjoy a great discussion on this book from the comfort of your own home! Please email mhutt@mcpl.info for information on getting a physical copy of the book. Age 21 and up. Please register. You will be emailed the Zoom link upon registration. Visit mcpl.info/bookclub for other book clubs and titles.
