On the day in 2008 that Sherman received the Rosenwald Award, his son David was installed as chair of the JUF/Federation Board. And it was passed on to Leonard and Diane's children, David and Miriam, and grandchildren. His sister, Suzy Braun, was active in JUF's Women's Division and the Federation Board. Together for a lifetime, Sherman and his wife carried on what they called "the business of the Jews." It was, in many ways, a family business. Many of the endowments and awards he made over the years are named in her memory. "She was the motivation of my life," Sherman said of the woman he was married to for 64 years. "She worked for CJE, ran Shabbat luncheons at Temple Emanuel, offered cooking classes for seniors in Rogers Park, and volunteered at Passover seders for Russian Jews." "She wanted to always extend a helping hand," he said. He also was a major supporter of the Council for Jewish Elderly, now CJE SeniorLife, in no small part due to his wife Diane's strong commitment.

He spoke at events, made countless personal appeals for contributions to support those most in need, and was actively involved as a leader. In Chicago, he was deeply engaged in the work of the Jewish United Fund. "It is so appropriate, because Leonard was one of the true builders of our community and the State of Israel for nearly three-quarters of a century." "In the lobby of the JUF headquarters, Leonard Sherman is one of the names carved into the stone on the wall to mark those who have made significant contributions to this community," JUF President Lonnie Nasatir said.

Maybe I’ve been reading too many short stories, thinking that every detail must count, must mean something later (in Strange, as long as that book was, details certainly meant a lot), but finally I came to grips with the fact that I could pretty much give up and skim past all the hall and statue descriptions. Where in Strange the world building happens gradually, here we are plunged into it, but instead of feeling immersed I felt distracted. In every entry, he orients himself by naming halls (ones he’s travelled through, ones where he fishes, where he sleeps, where he keeps his journals, where he meets the Other, where the Fifteen are located) and statues.

Norrell (which I’ll just refer to as Strange, from here on), I remember being immediately drawn into the book’s language and its world. Her descriptions of places and people are so straightforward that they both reveal the scene and allow the mind to dress it up a bit, as it likes. I think the “get to the action already” attitude is a modern one…something about the way Clarke tells the story makes it completely visible to the mind’s eye. Some reviewers seemed to think all the detail detracted from the action (Janet Maslin described it as “ action packed and unhurried”), and here I have to disagree. ![]() ![]() ![]() I want to refer back to some things I said on my blog about that novel because they’re relevant to my thoughts about Piranesi: A couple years ago, when I heard Susanna Clark had a new book being published, I knew I’d have to read it.
