Fire In My Ears

Authors Brunch Series

Join us for brunch at the Mid-Island Y JCC and engage in a personal discussion with author Susan Schneider as she talks about her book Fire In My Ears. Full Service/ACTIV Members FREE, Senior Club Members $5, Non-members $10.

Fire In My Ears is the story of Mary, a beautiful young woman who has been taught that her appearance is her only asset. Her beauty, she concludes, is all she needs. She makes one monumental decision just as she embarks on adulthood and this sparks her life's journey that is replete with anger, resentment, and despair. The resulting misery spreads, infecting her descendants like a family plague. Determined to save at least one member of her family from this curse, she begins telling Sarah, her nine year old granddaughter, the story of her life.
