Crisscrossing Israel over seven months in 2013-14, Tenenbom meets with high-ranking politicians, celebrated writers, religious leaders, “human rights” professionals, left-wing and right wing political activists, cajoling Jews and Arabs to speak for themselves. Mr. Tenenbom’s conversations range from the sacred to the profane, from high-level politics to discussions of the dating rituals of various religious groups and ethnicities. “Catch the Jew!” is an illuminating—and alarming—account of a part of the promised land that few foreigners see. “The result of this journey is an iconoclastic take on the Holy Land, that will either convulse the reader with laughter or enrage him/her to the point of mayhem.” - Tom Tugend, The Jewish Journal
