Four Days In June

BRANDEIS, WEIZMANN and EINSTEIN:FOUR DAYS IN CLEVELAND; JUNE, 1921", is a brief absorbing overview dealing with the problematic, complications as to Zionism, and the nascent State of Israel which occurred in Zionist history, in the mainly unexplored decades from 1890 to mid 1921.. Of particular interest is the barely hidden -- and, now almost forgotten -- conflict between three major competing nations as to the future of Zionism , reaching a fateful climax over a four day period in Cleveland, during June, 1921.. The unusual role played by Albert Einstein -- as an unwitting pawn of Chaim Weizmann -- relative to those incisive events, precipitously led to the ejection of the famed American Jurist -- Louis Brandeis, from his leadership of the World Zionist Movement : creating a schism , which continued until 1948.

A remarkable debut novel, ‘Four Days in June’ is an imaginative but accurate reconstruction of five men – all real figures – five points of view, and four days of one of the world's most famous battles.

A writing couple searches for answers when Alzheimer's causes one of them to lose the place where stories come from — memory. At the age of fifty-three, Tony walks away from a life of journalism and into an unknown future. June is forty-eight, a writer and teacher, and over the following decade watches as her husband changes — in interests, goals, and behaviour — until Tony has a fall, ending the life they had known. A diagnosis is seven years away, yet the signs of Alzheimer’s are all around. A suitcase Tony packs for a trip is jammed with four umbrellas, a visual symbol of cognitive looping. But how far back do these signs go? The couple starts probing the past and finding answers. This is not an old person’s disease.
