“Our Writers & Readers series is not only about bringing award-winning authors and writers to Cleveland, but also exposing our patrons to a variety of diverse and interesting thought leaders,” said Felton Thomas, Director of CPL. “Rabbi Telushkin is a dynamic speaker that uses wit and humor to engage his audience.”
Rabbi Telushkin’s reputation and appeal extend far beyond the Jewish community. His engaging and amusing volume Jewish Humor: What the Best Jewish Jokes Say About the Jews appeals to readers of all faiths (or none) and provides a glimpse of the wit and wisdom he shares with live audiences. True to his calling, the Rabbi uses jokes, stories and parables to instruct as well as amuse. His other works include Jewish Wisdom, The Book of Jewish Values and two award-winning volumes of A Code of Jewish Ethics.
His acclaimed book Words That Hurt, Words That Heal teaches how and when to criticize, how to keep disagreements from becoming disasters, and the one technique that will prevent you, even when angry, from destroying relationships with words.
This event is free and open to the public. Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Books will be available for purchase from A Cultural Exchange. For more information, visit cpl.org.
