This is one of the most negative books I’ve ever read. The author, coming from two branches of the Jewish diaspora, grew up in England.
He travels the world to see how Jews are living - NYC, Israel, Lithuania. He seems to have nothing good to say about any of them… except when he finds a woman attractive…
One comment he made struck me: the image we have of devils and witches is based on the stereotyped image of European Jews… down to the horns (such as found on Michelangelo’s Moses statue).
