The Final Solution to the Jewish Question

“Dara Horn is a phenomenal writer. Despite dealing with hard material, the book is also profoundly funny. Horn is a master at the turn of phrase and the perfectly placed parenthetical that, in a few words, can show the absurdity of the antisemite’s position.” –Jewish Book Council

“Written with clarity and understanding, this is an important book that will engender much-needed discussion.” –Booklist, starred review

“New ideas for fighting age-old hate… Impassioned, important reading.” –Kirkus Reviews

“Novelist Horn follows up People Love Dead Jews with another sharp and provocative analysis of antisemitism and why efforts to eradicate it have failed… .The author’s sharp analysis is bolstered by biting gallows humor and deep knowledge … . The result is a trenchant and brutally honest, yet often surprisingly optimistic, report on one of humanity’s oldest prejudices.” –Publishers Weekly

“A brilliant, lucid, eloquent, intellectual, emotional masterpiece.” –Rabbi Ammiel Hirsh, Stephen Wise Free Synagogue

Selected Praise for People Love Dead Jews

“This is a beautiful book, and in its particular genre–nonfiction meditations on the murder of Jews, particularly in the Holocaust, and the place of the dead in the American imagination–it can have few rivals. In fact, I can’t think of any.” –Martin Peretz, Wall Street Journal

“This is one of the best books of essays about Jewish history and culture that I have read in years.” –David Herman, The Jewish Chronicle

“So necessary and so disquieting…People Love Dead Jews is an outstanding book with a bold mission. It criticizes people, artworks, and public institutions that few others dare to challenge.” –Yaniv Iczkovits, New York Times Book Review

“Extremely engaging… Horn will make you think.” –Jeffrey Salkin, Washington Post
