On today’s show, we spend the hour with famed writer Adam Mansbach, whose latest novel draws on Jewish mysticism to fight anti-semitism and modern white supremacy. The Golem of Brooklyn offers a serious take, but is written in a long legacy of Jewish self-deprecating and laugh-out loud humor. Adam Mansbach, has won awards for many of his books, but is perhaps best known for the #1 New York Times bestseller, Go The Fuck To Sleep.
The Golem of Brooklyn will be released on September 26th, with an Oakland book launch event hosted by W Kamau Bell and presented by Booksmith, Berkeley Arts & Letters, and the JCC East Bay. That’s Tuesday, September 26th at the First Presbyterian Church of Oakland – 2619 Broadway, Oakland. More event details here: https://www.booksmith.com/event/adam-mansbach.
