David Baddiel would love there to be a God. He has spent a lot of time fantasising about how much better life would be if there actually was such a thing as a Superhero Dad who chased off Death. Unfortunately for him, there isn’t. Or at least, that is Baddiel’s view in this book, which argues that it is indeed the very intensity of his, and everyone else’s, desire for God to exist that proves His non-existence. Anything so deeply wished-for we will, considers Baddiel, make real.

Benny Burns spends every weekend helping his dad by working at their burger van, parked outside the local football ground.

A searingly honest, funny and moving family memoir in which David Baddiel exposes his mother’s idiosyncratic sex life, and his father’s dementia, to the same affectionate scrutiny.

Sam Green tiene muchísimas, pero muchísimas, muchísimas, muchísimas, muchísimas, muchísimas, muchísimas, muchísimas, muchísimas, muchísimas, muchísimas, muchísimas, muchísimas ganas de que llegue el día de su undécimo cumpleaños.

EL CUMPLEAÑOS DE SAM ESTABA A PUNTO DE TERMINAR. ¡Y ENTONCES LA VIO! ¡UNA ESTRELLA FUGAZ! ¡Grandísima, surcando el cielo! Era impresionante, como un cometa, o un cohete, o fuegos artificiales.

"Wer gegen Rassismus und gegen Antisemitismus ist, wer keine blinden Flecken mag, aber dafür gute Sachbücher, sollte dieses Buch lesen". So schrieb 2021 Nele Pollatschek nach dem Erscheinen dieses Buches unter anderem Titel. „Jews don’t count“ – „Juden zählen nicht“ ist nach dem 7. Oktober auch in Deutschland zum geflügelten Wort geworden – und eine bittere Wahrheit von Nahost- bis zu Aiwanger-Debatten. Wir veröffentlichen das bedeutende Buch darum neu mit dem übersetzten Original-Titel und einem aktuellen Vorwort David Baddiels.
