Holidays can set the stage for a delicious meal or a family drama. They can prompt memories of happy times, or present opportunities to create a new ones. This volume contains a sampling of diverse holiday experiences from a select group of talented writers featured and recorded at a live reading event in the Ossie Davis Theater at the New Rochelle Library in New York's Westchester County.

Great storytelling runs deep in the Jewish DNA, from Sholem Aleichem to Philip Roth and Nora Ephron, and that spirit is alive in the tales featured in this special anthology. Curated by Read650's founder and editor, Edward McCann, the stories collected in this volume include many that were originally performed for a live audience at the Ossie Davis Theater in New Rochelle, New York.
