NTA, but I wouldn’t want to read a Holocaust book in my bookclub unless it was exceptional and timely to our discussion. I understand creeping antisemitism is a problem, but the most acute examples are concentrated in certain populations that aren’t in my bookclub. Whenever we read books about topics we know a lot about, we end up having bad discussions.

If you want to have a discussion about antisemitism, why not read one of the recent books about Jewish identity and grappling with the Holocaust. I really enjoyed “Plunder” by Menachem Kaiser. I also heard good things about “People Love Dead Jews”.
