Joseph 'Tommy' Lapid (1931-2008) survived the horrors of the Holocaust to become Israel's notorious yet beloved 'big mouth': a journalist, playwright, TV star, and finally deputy prime minister and leader of the anti-Orthodox movement. His is a very personal story as well as the breathtaking saga of a nation that emerged from the ashes.
'Memories After My Death' is the story of Tommy Lapid, a well-loved and controversial Israeli figure who saw the development of the country from all angles over its first sixty years. From seeing his father taken away to a concentration camp to arriving in Tel Aviv at the birth of Israel, Tommy Lapid lived every major incident of Jewish life since the 1930s first-hand. This sweeping narrative is mesmerizing for anyone with an interest in how Israel became what it is today. Lapid's uniquely unorthodox opinions - he belonged to neither left nor right, was Jewish, but vehemently secular - expose the many contradictions inherent in Israeli life today.
