For those of you who like such things, an interesting and helpful list: A catalogue of the works that shape the Jewish mind in America today from The Tablet . The choices express “the collective inheritance of the Jewish people as read by Jews like us in America.” The list includes books in specifically Jewish categories like “The Jew in the world” and more general, though Jewish inflected, categories like “The appetites” and “Laughing and Complaining.”
