MAGNETIC WOMAN wins the 2021 Czechoslovak Studies Book Prize

I'm so pleased to report that Magnetic Woman has won the biennial Czechoslovak Studies Association book prize! It is a huge honor. I also want to salute Anna Hájková, whose The Last Ghetto is the Honorable Mention.

Prague and Beyond: Jews in the Bohemian Lands

New books are coming out in profusion! Here's another title of interest: Prague and Beyond: Jews in the Bohemian Lands, edited by Kateřina Čapková and Hillel J. Kieval. While you may need to wait to get the hardcover, it looks like the e-book is already available.

I'm being very quick-and-dirty about posting this as I'm in the middle of the annual Czech and Slovak Studies Workshop, hosted by University of Pittsburgh this year. It's free to sign up and attend and continues through Sunday.
