Summary: A Jewish-Japanese Gem!
Review: As an author of Jewish humor, I hate admitting anyone but me is funny, but Haikus for Jews had me roaring with laughter, and so did everybody that I gave a copy of the book to. This is a perfect gift to bring the hostess when you're invited to dinner. It's a lot cheaper and will last longer than a good bottle of wine ... unless one of the other dinner guests steals it. It is a perfect gift for anyone with a sense of humor. I loved it.

Summary: From this you laugh?
Review: David Bader has come up with a masterful concept: combine the poetic form of Japanese Haiku with kvetchy Jewish plaint. And bubule, it works. The book is best savored like bonbons, just a few at a time. Some are wry, some confirm the American Jewish experience, and some are laugh-out-loud funny; even my shaygitz husband completely lost it with: Today I am a man. Tomorrow I return to the seventh grade. I got it as a birthday gift and I LOVED it! Buy one for a gift and another for you.

Summary: I laugh just thinking about it
Review: I am part of a vast network of Jews who send jokes back and forth over the Internet. None are as funny as the ones in this book (and I'm very sensitive about stereotypes). I suspect people who don't laugh out loud of 1) not being Jewish, 2) not being able to read, or 3) having problems that must be solved with powerful drugs. I say that we pressure publishers to reissue Bader's other book, How to Be an Extremely Reform Jew.
