Praise for The Necessity of Exile: Essays From a Distance

With great precision and lucidity, these essays lay the groundwork for a desperately needed Jewish liberation theory of exile.”  Rachel Z Feldman

“Well-argued, well-written, and deeply nuanced, these essays collectively move us forward on the most vital dialogues that Jews must be having right now.”  Daniel Boyarin
