Farewell, Aleppo audio book now available
“A multi-faceted biography of her father and his long-ago journey from ancient Aleppo to skyscraper America—and against that background, Claudette Sutton offers us not only the story of the vanished Syrian-Jewish culture in Aleppo, now a battleground in Syria’s civil war, but also a look at how that culture still survives, and still nourishes Syrian Jews now living in America. A treasure of a book.” —Bernard Kalb, Former correspondent for the New York Times, CBS News and NBC News, and Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affairs Narrated by the author and available for purchase through Amazon, Audible or iTunes. |
