Book Salon with Yuliya Patsay
Thursday, May 2, 2024 • 24 Nisan 5784
7:00 PM - 8:30 PMFor the first installment of our Spring 2024 Book Salon event series, Sherith Israel member, Yuliya Patsay will present her new memoir in conversation with our clergy. Refreshments provided. Registration encouraged. In person only.
Until the Last Pickle, A memoir in 18 recipes
Born to a Jewish mother and a Ukrainian father during the final years of the Soviet Union, Yuliya grew up believing that bread lines were a fun way to spend an afternoon, drafts caused pneumonia and that Lenin was everyone’s benevolent grandpa.
After trading pickled herring and Soviet winters for San Francisco fog and year round produce (the real American dream!) she found herself occupying two parallel universes: the first grounded in her Soviet roots and the second in her burgeoning ‘Amerikanskiye’ beliefs.
About the author, Yuliya Patsay: At the core of everything I’ve done is storytelling. I’ve told personal stories on the page and stage, crafted the stories of brands & organizations, enabled others to tell their stories, and as a trained voice actor, I’ve lent my voice to tell the stories of brands, organizations, and characters of all kinds (from real people to imaginary dragons!).
