Product Description
Only .2% of the world is born Jewish. That means a whopping 99.8% of the population is wandering around without any idea how to live their lives.
By contrast, the tiny Semitic minority has been told exactly what to do and how to do it since the day they were born. And the source of this burning bush-like guidance is the Jewish mother.
Despite her best efforts, though, many children learn to think for themselves. Hence the Jewish mother’s eternal lament that her children NEVER LISTEN TO A WORD SHE SAYS.
Jews Clues is a book written by two children who did listen. Each entry provides insight into the seemingly arbitrary, frequently ridiculous, sometimes contradictory instructions that have been handed down from generation to generation, one pointed criticism at a time.
Filled with nearly 300 Clues (smart-ass aphorisms touching on multiple subjects), over 100 Chai-Kus (Jewish-themed Haikus) and 16 humorous essays, this book captures the American Jewish zeitgeist like no other.
So, go ahead, dive in. To paraphrase our mothers, you’ll thank us later.
