Winner of the 2021 National Jewish Book Award for Con­tem­po­rary Jew­ish Life and Prac­tice Finalist for the 2021 Kirkus Prize in Nonfiction A New York Times Notable Book of the Year A Wall Street Journal, Chicago Public Library, Publishers Weekly, and Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year A startling and profound exploration of how Jewish history is exploited to comfort the living. Renowned and beloved as a prizewinning novelist, Dara Horn has also been publishing penetrating essays since she was a teenager. Often asked by major publications to write on subjects related to Jewish culture—and increasingly in response to a recent wave of deadly antisemitic attacks—Horn was troubled to realize what all of these assignments had in common: she was being asked to write about dead Jews, never about living ones. In these essays, Horn reflects on subjects as far-flung as the international veneration of Anne Frank, the mythology that Jewish family names were changed at Ellis Island, the blockbuster traveling exhibition Auschwitz, the marketing of the Jewish history of Harbin, China, and the little-known life of the "righteous Gentile" Varian Fry. Throughout, she challenges us to confront the reasons why there might be so much fascination with Jewish deaths, and so little respect for Jewish lives unfolding in the present. Horn draws upon her travels, her research, and also her own family life—trying to explain Shakespeare’s Shylock to a curious ten-year-old, her anger when swastikas are drawn on desks in her children’s school, the profound perspective offered by traditional religious practice and study—to assert the vitality, complexity, and depth of Jewish life against an antisemitism that, far from being disarmed by the mantra of "Never forget," is on the rise. As Horn explores the (not so) shocking attacks on the American Jewish community in recent years, she reveals the subtler dehumanization built into the public piety that surrounds the Jewish past—making the radical argument that the benign reverence we give to past horrors is itself a profound affront to human dignity.

Once upon a time in Aberystwyth, a set of film students would have done anything to get a movie made. This was NOT that movie. Instead, they decided to try for what was possible: a film that could be shot in one location, with three actors, for a crowdfunded budget. That budget would mainly go to making « perks » and perhaps entering a few film festivals. When that failed, one of them made this film instead. Strangely enough, some people who watched it laughed at something other than the production valleys. Er, values. Yes, it was entertaining on its own merits. How do you make a movie that people enjoy when the neighbour (he is British, so he’s not a neighbor) is cutting his hedge at full volume? How do you make a film at all in a terraced house without a parking space? If you want to see why our audience liked it, then watch the film. But, if you also want to know how it was made, to see the skeleton of a screenplay that the actors had to work with, then this book might be for you.
