“Outside Voices: A Memoir of the Berkeley Revolution”

BOOK CLUB QUOTES

“Hey Sunshine, I just heard the most amazing things, both from Shannon as well as a couple clients, about last night’s book club. ‘Dreamy’ was my favorite adjective. Giant thanks for being who you are and so generous and helping to create such a wonderful community.”

Brandon Miller, CEO /Brio Financial Services

“Our book club discussion about Outside Voices was so enriched with Joan in attendance. She brought the book to life and underscored its relevance in today's world. Her openness about what writing a memoir meant to her and her candid answers to our questions made the evening a true delight.”

Lea Goldstein

"Joan launched our Auther's Series and gave a captivating presentation about her book and the writing process. Our congregants asked many questions, including personal ones, and Joan answered them all in an honest, thoughtful manner. The participants kept talking about her book and the discussion for a while - we are all inspired by it.”

Adie Paz-Priel, Author of Congregation Beth Sholom Author Series

“Having Joan join our book group to talk about “Outside Voices” was fantastic. We were able to ask questions about various aspects of the text: we discussed her process with her Jewish practice, her healing process and how her writing evolved while in Berkeley. By hearing Joan talk in depth about certain aspects of the book we all gained a deeper understanding of the atmosphere in Berkeley, the political activism, and how being in community can indeed change the trajectory of someone’s life. Very inspiring!”
