The Thread Collectors
by Shaun Edwards and Alyson Richman

1863: In a small Creole cottage in New Orleans, an ingenious young Black woman named Stella embroiders intricate maps on repurposed cloth to help enslaved men flee and join the Union Army. Bound to a man who would kill her if he knew of her clandestine activities, Stella has to hide not only her efforts but her love for William, a Black soldier and a brilliant musician.
Meanwhile, in New York City, a Jewish woman stitches a quilt for her husband, who is stationed in Louisiana with the Union Army. Between abolitionist meetings, Lily rolls bandages and crafts quilts with her sewing circle for other soldiers, too, hoping for their safe return home. But when months go by without word from her husband, Lily resolves to make the perilous journey South to search for him.
As these two women risk everything for love and freedom during the brutal Civil War, their paths converge in New Orleans, where an unexpected encounter leads them to discover that even the most delicate threads have the capacity to save us. Loosely inspired by the authors’ family histories, this stunning novel will stay with readers for a long time. (Amazon)

Ezekiel's Wheels Klezmer Band
2023-03-26 15:00 - 17:00
Ezekiel’s Wheels Klezmer Band
Sunday, March 26 at 3PM

Internationally-acclaimed Ezekiel’s Wheels Klezmer Band brings passion, virtuosity, and
contagious energy to every performance. The Wheels improvise with the intimacy of
chamber music and the intensity of a rowdy dance band. Their engaging contemporary
interpretation of Jewish music is irresistible to audiences ranging from elementary school
students to the judges at the International Jewish Music Festival, who heralded them as “a
true musical democracy.”
The Wheels’ unique style was forged in the subway stations and farmers’ markets of
Boston, where the informal setting and ever-changing audience created an ideal
environment for musical experimentation. Over time, their repertoire grew to incorporate
original as well as traditional instrumental tunes, and in 2017 it further expanded to
include songs in Yiddish and English. Ezekiel’s Wheels features Abigale Reisman (violin,
backing vocals), Kirsten Lamb (double bass, lead vocals), Nat
Seelen (clarinet) and Pete Fanelli (trombone).
Tickets: $25 (under 13, $10), thanks to partial support from the Jewish
Women’s Endowment Fund of the North Shore, Wakefield Arts Council, and Congregation
Beth Israel of the Merrimack Valley.
Temple Emmanuel of Wakefield is located at 120 Chestnut St. Wakefield, MA 01880, and is
a member of Jewish Reconstructionist Communities.
