Jews Don’t Count

David Baddiel is a brilliant thinker and writer. Even when I disagree with him--especially when I disagree with him--I feel profound gratitude for his intellectual and moral clarity. This is a brave and necessary book. Jonathan Safran Foer This is a bare-knuckle fist-fight of a book - snarly, sweary, unrestrained, unsparing. Baddiel's great advantage as a polemicist is that he's familiar with the worlds where anti-Semites flourish - the football terraces, comedy, journalism, the stage, Twitter, even the Labour Party - and is well apprised of their tactics. It isn't that he punches low; it's that he knows how to defend himself when they do. A win by knockout - early in the third. Howard Jacobson 'Patient, clear and persuasive - which makes it not just admirable but valuable' Jonathan Freedland 'Just so brilliantly argued and written, I was completely swept along' Hadley Freeman
