Drawing on travel chronicles, biographies, modern literary reflections and Biblical sources, “Jewish Journeys” explains why the ‘journey’, from Abraham journeying from one land and culture in search of another to the creation of Israel, is at the heart of the Jewish experience.

He muses on many things about Israel, such as the motivations for contemporary travellers, views on modern satirical approaches to subject such as the holocaust and the ambiguities of trips to Poland.

Inviting the contemporary reader to consider the vastness of the Jewish journey, to enjoy the reflections of those who recorded their experiences, and to place themselves somewhere in the continuum, this is a truly interesting read, whatever political beliefs you bring to it.
