Anti-Semite and Jew Author:Jean-Paul Sartre Jean-Paul Sartre's book is a brilliant portrait of both anti-Semite *and* Jew, written by a non-Jew and from a non-Jewish pint of view. Nothing of the anti-Semite either in his subtle form as a snob, or in his crude form as gangster, escapes Sartre's sharp eye, and the whole problem of the Jew's relationship to the Gentile is examine... more »d in a concrete and living way, rather than in terms of sociological abstractions.
"[A] fervent and brilliant challenge to anti-Semitism." --The New York Times
"A review...can merely indicate the humanity, the compassion and the suggestive brilliance of Sartre's writing. His essay is a genuine contribution to congtemporary thought; it will be read and reread in years to come." --Harvey Swados« less
