Anti-Semite and Jew

With a new preface by Michael Walzer

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 point of view. Nothing of the anti-Semite either in his subtle form as a snob, or in his crude form as a gangster, escapes Sartre''s sharp eye, and the whole problem of the Jew''s relationship to the Gentile is examined in a concrete and living way, rather than in terms of sociological abstractions.
