Ruben Blum, a Jewish historian (although not a history of the Jews) is coopted into a hiring committee at Corbin College, in not-quite-upstate New York, winter of 1959–1960, to consider the candidature of an exiled Israeli academic who specialises in the Spanish Inquisition. Blum plays the hesitant host when Benzion Netanyahu suddenly turns up for an interview with his family, and the visitors promptly destroy his American complacencies. 'An Account of A Minor and Ultimately Even Negligible Incident in the History of a Very Famous Family', THE NETANYAHUS, is a wildly inventive, genre-bending comedy of blending, identity, and politics that finds Joshua Cohen at the pinnacle of his abilities. It blends fiction with non-fiction, the campus novel with the lecture.
