Think you know Israel? Think again.
National Jewish Book Award winner and Amazon bestseller, Israel 201 takes readers beyond the headlines to explore the people, culture, humor, contradictions, and everyday realities that make Israel unlike any other country in the world.
Written by acclaimed comedians and longtime Israeli residents Joel Chasnoff and Benji Lovitt, this entertaining and insightful guide answers the questions visitors rarely think to ask. and explains the uniquely Israeli logic behind the answers. Why do children ride bicycles on Yom Kippur? Why are Israelis so famously direct? How can ancient traditions coexist with cutting-edge innovation? And what do stray cats, stand-up comedy, the IDF, and Shabbat have in common?
Blending sharp humor with thoughtful cultural insight, the authors explore religion, politics, history, language, food, military service, family life, and the quirks that define modern Israeli society. Whether you're visiting Israel for the first time, already know the country well, or simply want to understand it beyond the news, Israel 201 offers an engaging, nuanced, and often laugh-out-loud perspective.
Part travel companion, part cultural guide, and part comedy, Israel 201 is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the Israel you didn't know you didn't know.
