Publisher's blurb: Wherever there is a Jew there is a journey; for a Jew to go travelling in search of his Jewishness is therefore doubly Jewish. But as Howard Jacobson's journey takes him via the Catskill Mountains, Manhattan, Los Angeles, Eilat, Jerusalem, Tiberias, Haifa and Sefat, to say nothing of Stamford Hill and Llandudno, he finds there is more to being Jewish than schmalz and self-ridicule.
