Esther Chehebar, author of the acclaimed novel Sisters of Fortune and a regular contributor to&nbsp;Tablet Magazine on Syrian Jewish culture and tradition, will sit down with Linda for a conversation about food as a keeper of memory, the experience of leaving one home and creating another, and the ways recipes can preserve family and cultural identity. Following the conversation, Linda will give a culinary demonstration, bringing the flavors and traditions of her book to life. &nbsp;The afternoon will conclude with an audience Q&amp;A and book signing.
