Summary:
"Shlomo Sand was born in 1946, in a displaced person's camp in Austria, to a
Jewish
mother and non-Jewish father; the family later migrated to Palestine. As a young man, Sand came to question his
Jewish
identity, even that of a "secular Jew." With this meditative and thoughtful mixture of essay and personal recollection, he articulates the problems at the center of modern
Jewish
identity.
How
I
Stopped
Being
a Jew discusses the negative effects of the Israeli exploitation of the "chosen people" myth and its "holocaust industry." Sand criticizes the fact that, in the current context, what "
Jewish
" means is, above all, not
being
Arab and reflects on the possibility of a secular, non-exclusive Israeli identity, beyond the legends of Zionism"--Provided by publisher.
