Quand j'étais goy

Michel Nomber crée un roman fictif à partir d'éléments clés tirés de sa propre vie, ponctué de réflexions de l'auteur lui-même. Ou la vie presque normale d'un jeune docteur de confession juive, tiraillé, entre autres, entre sa relation avec sa famille, les femmes de sa vie, son propre « moi », et ses lucides craintes inspirées par le monde politique moderne. Michel Nomber qualifie Quand j'étais goy de « bio-roman », à savoir une œuvre qui n'est pas véritablement une autobiographie, mais pas non plus totalement un roman. À vous de différencier le fictif du réel, le vrai du faux, et le vécu du romancé, dans cette œuvre au ton juste et sans complaisance.
