Correction: Upcoming Havurah Events
Havurah Book Group to Discuss The Dark Queens by Shelley Puhak 7 pm to 8:30 pm, Tuesday, November 28 – Zoom Room Bet Brunhild was a foreign princess, raised to be married off for the sake of building an alliance. Her sister-in-law Fredegund started out as a lowly palace slave. And yet in sixth-century Merovingian France, where women were excluded from noble succession and royal politics was a blood sport, these two iron-willed strategists reigned over vast realms, changing the face of Europe. After the queens' deaths—one gentle, the other horrific—their stories were rewritten, their names consigned to slander and legend. In The Dark Queens, award-winning writer Shelley Puhak sets the record straight. The Dark Queens offers proof that the relationships between women can transform the world. (Non-Fiction, 384 pages.) Discussion led by Maud Naroll. Nonmembers welcome. RSVP for Zoom info.
