People Love Dead Jews
In this collection of sharp essays, Dara Horn probes the unsettling tendency to celebrate Jewish history while ignoring contemporary Jewish people. She examines how figures like Anne Frank and the Holocaust itself become spectacles, questioning why the world is so fascinated by Jewish death and so dismissive of Jewish life. Horn argues that this focus on the past, while seemingly respectful, can be a form of subtle dehumanization, and she powerfully advocates for recognizing the vibrant, complex reality of Jewish existence today.
