"Every season there are new #Jewish #books coming out, and summer 2025 boasts some heavy hitters. There are #memoirs from celebrities and public figures; debut #novels about marriage plots within the #Syrian Jewish community and learning what it means to be a Jewish #dyke in ’90s San Francisco; essay collections on our worst habits and the righteous anger of a perpetual rule-follower; and accounts of the history of #Jews in #Texas and erasure #poetry about the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.

We’ve curated all of these (and more) into a list of the most exciting Jewish books coming out this summer. So be a little bad this summer — eschew your previous #reading plans and pick up one of these works instead."

@appassionato @bookstodon Thank you for recommending this powerful book. It is indeed a book for these times as people around the world are driven from their homes, communities and lives due to war, #climateBreakdown, persecution, #poverty, #fascism, and any number of other factors that rip us from the places and people we love. The life of a #refugee is no picnic nor is the #trauma that they carry as we read of these #Syrian refugees. #books #bookstodon #literaryfiction

Geert Wilders: The far-right leader accused of 'ego-trip' after leaving #Dutch coalition govt.

« He wanted his coalition partners to agree to a 10-point plan, which includes using the military to seal the country's borders to all asylum seekers, closing asylum centres & returning all #Syrian nationals who have applied for asylum or been granted temporary visas. »
