520 8  In this sparkling debut, a young critic offers an original,
       passionate, and erudite account of what it means to feel 
       Jewish--even when you're not. Self-hatred. Guilt. 
       Resentment. Paranoia. Hysteria. Overbearing Mother-Love. 
       In this witty, insightful, and poignant book, Devorah Baum
       delves into fiction, film, memoir, and psychoanalysis to 
       present a dazzlingly original exploration of a series of 
       feelings famously associated with modern Jews. Reflecting 
       on why Jews have so often been depicted, both by others 
       and by themselves, as prone to "negative" feelings, she 
       queries how negative these feelings really are. And as the
       pace of globalization leaves countless people feeling more
       marginalized, uprooted, and existentially threatened, she 
       argues that such "Jewish" feelings are becoming 
       increasingly common to us all. Ranging from Franz Kafka to
       Philip Roth, Sarah Bernhardt to Woody Allen, Anne Frank to
       Nathan Englander, Feeling Jewish bridges the usual fault 
       lines between left and right, insider and outsider, Jew 
       and Gentile, and even Semite and anti-Semite, to offer an 
       indispensable guide for our divisive times
