Reviews

This collection marks the coming of age of Irish Jewish Studies. Beautifully curated by Natalie Wynn and Zuleika Rodgers, it brings together the best of recent scholarship, covering history, politics, literature and everyday life. Taken together these essays show the complexity of both the Irish Jewish experience and responses to them.
