The Taming of the Jew | Tuvia Tenenbom

Review\\n"A pointed, savage and often comic travelogue about attitudes in Britain and Ireland … Most excruciating, he finds perfectly 'tamed' British Jews who equivocate about the Jew-hatred in their country."
\nMelanie Phillips, Jewish Chronicle (UK)\\n"Amazingly frank, amusing, fearless and chuzpadik, wonderfully readable, highly recommended."
\nNeville Teller, The Jerusalem Report (Israel)\\n"If J.D. Salinger and John Steinbeck collaborated on antisemitism in the UK, they might have written The Taming of the Jew."
\nH. Fragman Abramson, Jewish Press (USA)\\n"Quizzical and tragic at the same time, the sort of comedy sketches that Samuel Beckett might have written if he were Jewish rather than Irish."
\nDavid Goldman, Algemeiner (USA)\\n"Tenenbom is the Egon Erwin Kirsch of our time."
\nHenryk M. Broder, Achgut (Germany)\\n"Full of investigative chutzpah and laughter, poetic like a bird flapping its wings, and sensual like a man loudly enjoying his meal ... mixing British wit and Talmudic subtleties."
\nMatthias Matussek, Die Weltwoche (Switzerland)\\n"This is a frightening book and deserves to be read."
\nDavid Herman, The Article (UK)\\n"What differentiates this book from other books is this: This book is very funny."
\nYaron London, Channel 11 TV (Israel)\\n"An accurate picture of reality, more accurate than BBC and CNN."
\nRoman Joch, Lidové Noviny (Czech Republic)\\n"Razor sharp, sarcastic, occasionally even shocking, and very entertaining."
\nPetr Kolář, MF DNES (Czech Republic)\\n"Tenenbom’s writing is laced with great entertainment, while at the same time providing much knowledge."
\nUlrike Borowczyk, Hamburger Abendblatt (Germany)\\n"Full of investigative chutzpah and laughter, poetic like a bird flapping its wings, and sensual like a man loudly enjoying his meal...mixing British wit and Talmudic subtleties."Die Weltwoche (Switzerland) The Taming of the Jew, Israel's number one best-selling e-book, is Tuvia Tenenbom's funniest and most disturbing book to date. For months on end, Tuvia roamed through the four nations that make up the United Kingdom Northern Ireland, Scotland, England, and Wales. He interacted with anyone and everyone who came his way throughout his journey: from the terrifying ghosts long dead to the highly esteemed lords and baronesses very much alive, most of whom happened to be anti-Semites. But that's not all. While wandering around, Tuvia caught a nap in Winston Churchill's room, curled up in Hillary Clinton's European bed, played cat-and-mouse with the most infamous British politician, Jeremy Corbyn, and enjoyed excellent tobacco with the Brexit architect, Nigel Farage. In between, he drank the blackest of coffees with a well-known bank robber, maintained close contact with an eagle, swallowed a monster, and chatted with Jewish leaders who fervently defended every anti-Semite in Her Majesty's Kingdom.
