Media reviews

“Jacqueline Rose has written what can only be called a masterpiece of scholarship and thought. The Last Resistance, exploring the role of literature in the Zionist imagination and Jewish memory, is a work of stunning insight and moral courage. Destined to become a standard in the field, it will have a profound and lasting impact.”—Sara Roy, Harvard University

“In The Last Resistance, Jacqueline Rose uses her knowledge of literature, psychoanalysis, and politics to brilliantly illuminating effect. The volume will greatly enhance Professor Rose’s reputation as a literary critic and public intellectual. Stimulating and thought-provoking, it deserves to be read widely.”—Avi Shlaim, University of Oxford

“The miracle of Jacqueline Rose is that she combines textual criticism with concrete political struggles in a brilliant way. In this book, a breathtakingly refined textual analysis sustains a passionate, ethical and political engagement in the ongoing Near East crisis. This alone makes her a model of what a public intellectual should be.”—Slavoj Žižek
