Described as ‘the English Philip Roth’, Booker Prize winner Howard Jacobson has written some of the funniest and most devastating books of our time. His new novel Howl follows the embattled Ferdinand Draxler, son of a Holocaust survivor who accuses him of cowardice and father of a daughter who accuses him of genocide. With his trademark erudition and acerbic wit, Jacobson skewers the anxieties and absurdity of living in our strange times.
