What took them so long?


The latest issue of the Jewish Quarterly (Summer 2012 Number 222) has hit the stands.

In it you’ll find my review of The Odyssey of Samuel Glass by Bernard Kops and The Tel Aviv Dossier by Lavie Tidhar & Nir Yaniv.

I can confidentially say that in its 57 year history The Jewish Quarterly has not published a review that manages to name check H.P. Lovecraft, Bram Stoker, Beckett, Dr Seuss and, um, er, Cannibal Holocaust. Until now.
