A reading about Cuban Jews

Achy Obejas, Cuban Jewish author of Days of Awe, Memory Mambo and We Came All the Way from Cuba So You Could Dress Like This?, will be doing a special bilingual reading that may be of genealogical interest.

In Days of Awe, Obejas, who is also an award-winning journalist, focuses on a family's Jewish roots, Cuban Jewish history and the more contemporary community.

The reading, which Obejas will share with poet Jose Kozer, will be held at 7 p.m., April 26 during an all-Cuban-Jewish event at the Americas Society in New York.
