Please note:  Masks and proof of vaccination for those eligible are required.  

The weeks leading up to the Days of Awe are a time on the Jewish calendar for reflection and remembrance that also mirror and amplify the daily lived experience of loss and memory. 

Join Rebecca Soffer, Berkshires resident and co-founder of Modern Loss, a global movement and platform of content, resources, and community focused on eradicating the stigma around grief while also encouraging people to find meaning and live richly for a discussion of her new book, THE MODERN LOSS HANDBOOK: An Interactive Guide to Moving Through Grief and Building Your Resilience.   

Books will be available for purchase and booksigning after the program.  Purchase the book here and a portion of the proceeds will be donated back to the local Bookstore in Lenox.

Rebecca Soffer is the co-author of the book Modern Loss: Candid Conversation about Grief. Beginners Welcome. (Harper Wave, 2018) and an internationally recognized speaker on loss and resilience. She writes regularly across media, including the New York Times, Glamour, NBC, and CNN. Rebecca is a Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism alumna and a Peabody Award-winning former producer for The Colbert Report.

Rebecca and her husband and sons split their time between New York City and The Berkshires. For more information visit ModernLoss.com.
