As part of Jewish Book Month, Sonia Pilcer, author of six novels, will read from her newest work, The Last Hotel, based on a residential hotel her father managed on the Upper West Side in the 1970s. Born in a displaced persons camp in Landsberg, Germany, Pilcer was raised in New York City. From the Booklist review of her previous novel, Holocaust Kid: “Wit and humor interface with stark realities and unanswerable questions. Provocative fiction, not just for the second generation but for all our collective memories.” Free.
