The Netanyahus

January 7th. Hostess: Sue • Expert: Sara

Won 2022 Pulitzer Prize for fiction. Corbin College in not quite upstate New York, 1959-1960, is seeking a qualified history professor. A candidate is Benzion Netanyahu (the candidate has specialized in the history of the Jewish people and the Spanish Inquisition) who shows up unexpectedly for an interview with his wife and children in tow. Chaos ensues. The Netanyahus is a blend of history, comedy, and politics. You are learning and laughing at the same time. I loved this book.  —Sara
