Corbin College, not-quite-upstate New York, winter 1959-1960: Ruben Blum, a Jewish historian - but not an historian of the Jews - is coopted onto a hiring committee to review the application of an exiled Israeli scholar specializing in the Spanish Inquisition. When Benzion Netanyahu shows up for an interview, family unexpectedly in tow, Blum plays the reluctant host, to guests who proceed to lay waste to his American complacencies. Mixing fiction with non-fiction, the campus novel with the lecture, THE NETANYAHUS is a wildly inventive, genre-bending comedy of blending, identity, and politics - ' An Account of A Minor and Ultimately Even Negligible Episode in the History of a Very Famous Family' that finds Joshua Cohen at the height of his powers.
Joshua Cohen was born in 1980 in Atlantic City. He has written novels (MOVING KINGS, BOOK OF NUMBERS), short fiction(FOUR NEW MESSAGES), and nonfiction for THE NEW YORK TIMES, HARPER' S MAGAZINE, N+1, LRB, THE NEW REPUBLIC, and others. From 2001 to 2007, he worked as a journalist throughout Europe. In 2017 he was named one of Granta' s Best of Young American Novelists. THE NETANYAHUS is his third book with Fitzcarraldo Editions. He lives in New York City.
