Gilad Atzmon grew up in Israel. National Service in the army made him a convinced anti-Zionist. He now lives in London where he is a prominent jazz saxophonist, playing with the Orient House Ensemble. Since 1998 Atzmon has toured with the late Ian Dury s legendary backing band, The Blockheads.
?Operation Shylock meets Portnoy?s Complaint: Atzmon?s merciless take on Israeli post utopia is in the great tradition of Jewish literary subversion. And funny too!? Elena Lappin ?A Guide to the Perplexed is that most welcome and necessary thing, a satire with a target and a true aim? Nicholas Blincoe ?One of the funniest books I have come across. He manages to finely scrutinise male apathy and come up with very accurate observations about men, women and unimportant subjects such as global politics? Ynet ?This is a brilliant parody of all of us and behind this comedy hides our terrible tragedy? Yediot Acharonot
