King to read on Tu B'av
Ruchama King will read from her buzzing new book, SEVEN BLESSINGS, at 7:30 p.m. on August 13 at the Barnes & Noble at 82nd Street and Broadway in New York City. Conveniently, August 13th is Tu B'av, one of the most romantic days on the Jewish calendar. Traditionally, this is the day when the young women of Jerusalem would dance in the vineyards while the single men watched. It is also the day women were permitted to marry outside their tribe. What better day for a reading of a book about love, weddings and matchmaking?
