The new novel by the internationally acclaimed author- "a farce of
nuclear proportions"("Vanity Fair")
Arnon Grunberg is one of the most subtly outrageous provocateurs in
world literature. "The Jewish Messiah," which chronicles the
evolution of one Xavier Radek from malcontent grandson of a former
SS officer, to Jewish convert, to co- translator of Hitler's "Mein
Kampf" into Yiddish, to Israeli politician and Israel's most
unlikely prime minister, is his most outrageous work yet. Taking on
the most well-guarded pieties and taboos of our age, "The Jewish
Messiah" is both a great love story and a grotesque farce that
forces a profound reckoning with the limits of human guilt,
cruelty, and suffering. It is without question Arnon Grunberg's
masterpiece.
