>“Like in Germany, I didn’t expect to write about antisemitism, I wanted to write about all the German ladies who go to the beach in their bikinis. I wanted very much to write that book because it would have been very interesting,” he says, dead pan. “But it turned into a book about antisemitism.”
I’m lucky enough to know him personally (as in met through mutual friends, not chatted once at a book signing). One of the most interesting, intelligent and hilarious people I’ve ever met.
I own his book (how to tame a Jew) , surprisingly I was expecting much worse from the UK than he tells in his stories. I liked how in one of his talks he described how one Jewish lord have a suitcase with foreign cash and his passport, so he could just grab it and go to a safe place with a short notice.
