“A fable of fantastical lushness” unfolds as two women meet in a small Spanish town in this novel from the acclaimed author of Septimania (The New York Times Book Review). Holland and Hanni have come to Spain for two very different reasons. They have nothing in common except their mysterious travel agent Ben. But they soon discover much deeper connections. Stranded overnight because of an airport strike, Hanni and Holland come to realize they share a strange web of history and happenstance―a common labyrinth that stretches back to World War II, the Spanish Inquisition, and beyond. A Guide for the Perplexed is a collection of the letters these women write to their mysterious, unseen travel agent―a long night’s worth of confessions, a tapestry of tales chasing tales, including an untold saga of Columbus’s voyage to the New World, stories of war and lost loves, lost children, lost Jews, and the true origins of baseball. Combining the erudition of Umberto Eco with the ingenious storytelling of A Thousand and One Nights, Jonathan Levi weaves together a provocative reimagining of the discovery of America in this inventive debut novel.

This is the last complete book published during Levi's lifetime to be translated into English and offers one final look into the mind of one of the most compelling and tragic witnesses of the twentieth century. In THE SEARCH FOR ROOTS, Levi has selected the thirty pieces of prose and poetry most important to him.

Levi's many fans will be fascinated by the pieces he has chosen - with authors selected ranging from Homer, Swift and Melville to Darwin, Marco Polo and a scientist on Black Holes.

Modernist Form and the Myth of Jewification

Why were modernist works of art, literature, and music that were neither by nor about Jews nevertheless interpreted as Jewish? In this book, Neil Levi explores how the antisemitic fantasy of a mobile, dangerous, contagious Jewish spirit unfolds in the antimodernist polemics of Richard Wagner, Max Nordau, Wyndham Lewis, and Louis-Ferdinand Celine, reaching its apotheosis in the notorious 1937 Nazi exhibition “Degenerate Art.” Levi then turns to James Joyce, Theodor W. Adorno, and Samuel Beckett, offering radical new interpretations of these modernist authors to show how each presents his own poetics as a self-conscious departure from the modern antisemitic imaginary. Levi claims that, just as antisemites once feared their own contamination by a mobile, polluting Jewish spirit, so too much of postwar thought remains governed by the fear that it might be contaminated by the spirit of antisemitism. Thus he argues for the need to confront and work through our own fantasies and projections—not only about the figure of the Jew but also about that of the antisemite.
