Everyday Jews - Keith Kahn-Harris - diskuze

Can Jews be allowed to become boring?With Israel and antisemitism constantly in the news, it seems as though the Jewish people - a fraction of a percentage of the world''s population - have become synonymous with controversy, drama and anxiety. But what if there was another side to this persistently interesting people; one that non-Jews often don''t know about and Jews rarely talk about? This is the stuff of ''everyday'' Jewishness; the capacity to be ordinary, mundane and sometimes just plain dull.Keith Kahn-Harris lifts the lid on this surprising world in a book for Jews and non-Jews alike. Arguing that his people''s extraordinary public visibility today is harming their ability to live everyday Jewish lives, he celebrates the mundanity and mediocrity of a people before it vanishes completely.
