SUMMARY:Cal Hoffman at Harvard Book Store
DESCRIPTION:Harvard Book Store welcomes Cal Hoffman—acclaimed author of Easy to Slip—for a discussion of his new novel\, Judah Can’t Tell. He will be joined in conversation by Joanna Rakoff—author of the international bestselling memoir My Salinger Year and the prize-winning novel A Fortunate Age.  \nAbout Judah Can’t Tell\nOn the morning a powerful US senator is accused of a long-buried sexual scandal\, his son Harris wakes to a world suddenly unrecognizable. \nA journalist\, husband\, and father\, Harris has built his life on reason\, responsibility\, and restraint. But as headlines spread and reputations unravel\, he is pulled back into the unresolved gravity of his childhood—into memories of political ambition\, parental absence\, and a father whose public idealism shaped Harris’s private life in ways he is only beginning to understand. \nAs Harris navigates a single charged day—balancing work\, marriage\, parenthood\, and a culture hungry for judgment—Judah Can’t Tell becomes a powerful meditation on power\, consent\, masculinity\, and moral inheritance. What do we owe the people we love when the truth threatens to destroy them? And what do we owe our children when silence feels safer than honesty? \nWritten with emotional acuity and moral clarity\, Judah Can’t Tell is a timely\, deeply human novel about reckoning—personal\, political\, and generational.
