The National Yiddish Book Center is planning a Fall Cultural Encounter Weekend from November 6-9, 2009. The event's theme will be "Becoming Americans: A Mosaic of Immigrant Writers." It looks pretty tempting (if only I didn't have to stay here in NYC November 6). Note that "limited scholarships are available for full-time college and graduate students."

I've seen several reviews of Francine Prose's new book, Anne Frank: The Book, the Life, the Afterlife. At least equally interesting is this audio feature from Tablet, in which Prose herself discusses the work.
