I liked it sort of in spite of myself??? I thought we spent way too much time listening to Netanyahu talking and less time like ... with the daughter, but as didactic content goes, it was lucid and informative.

a friend of mine passed me his review copy & I haven't cracked it but have been eager to. My wife has cousins with a longtime connection to the real-life family — she declined an invitation to attend Yair's bris.

I love love love Emily St. John Mandel’s books. GLASS HOTEL was probably my favorite read this year.

If a person -- me -- has never read any Sarah Schulman before, which book of hers would you recommend they start with?

Haha, I would read that book, especially if it was written by Mandel.

And AFTER DELORES, it is -- thanks!
