Author Talk: Crooked Lines: A Single Mom’s Jewish Journey

June 21, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

AUTHOR JENNA ZARK IN CONVERSATION WITH BETH FRIEND

When you part company with the life you’ve been living and have to start a new one, what do you do? Jenna Zark didn’t expect to be divorced. She didn’t expect to be a single mom – but when her son was three, that’s exactly what happened. After moving from New York to the Twin Cities because of her former husband’s job as a cantor at a synagogue, she knew very few people outside the synagogue. The idea of starting over was terrifying. Yet, there is a saying that God paints in crooked lines when leading us to the people we were meant to meet. This book was born of the journey.

Crooked Lines will be available for purchase and Jenna is available for signing afterwards. Light snack and refreshments will be provided.

Crooked Lines won the Silver award from Nautilus in 2023 and also received an Honorable Mention from the Eric Hoffer Awards.
