Reviews

"""This book challenges the all-too-easily accepted narrative that Heller was a self-hating Jew who was refuted by being murdered in the camps. It thus contributes to the rethinking and 're-possibilizing' of Jewish views about assimilation, emancipation, and the fight against fascism in the first half of the twentieth century. The use of manuscripts, letters, accounts, and critiques by Heller's associates makes this a prime example of intellectual history done well."" — Jeffrey A. Bernstein, author of Leo Strauss on the Borders of Judaism, Philosophy, and History"
