How an Israeli historian led me to do the best things I’ve ever done – Gershom Gorenberg – The Washington Post 28.03.17
I can’t really claim that we were close friends. If I add up all the time we spent together, it probably doesn’t come to 24 hours. But because of him, I did the best things I’ve ever done in my life.

Elliott Horowitz was the author of Reckless Rites: Purim and the Legacy of Jewish Violence (Princeton) and former co-editor of the Jewish Quarterly Review.
