My One and Only Love - Tapa blanda

'A seriously funny writer and the wittiest musician since Ronnie Scott ... We're lucky Gilad Atzmon is around.' Robert Wyatt 'A panoply of convincing, crazed and comic voices. A dramatic and entertaining satire and a welcome left-field look at Israeli self-identity.' Nicholas Blincoe 'A biting satire on Jewish identity, Zionist politics and sex.' The Observer 'A fusion of anti-Israeli conspiracy theory and adolescent sexual farce - Mordechai Vanunu meets 'American Pie' - which involves crynogenically maintained war criminals, Mossad agents, and a trumpeter who can bring women to orgasm just by playing a single note.' Time Out 'An Israeli who prefers to be labeled a Palestinian, a Jew who calls himself an ex-Jew, a saxophonist and clarinetist, novelist, philosopher and airline pilot manque, Atzmon is, it's safe to say, a bit different.' The Independent 'A blackly comic satire about a Jewish jazz trumpeter caught up in the world of Israeli espionage.' The Bookseller 'Catch 22 meets Only Fools and Horses.' Jazz Review 'A remarkable romp ... compulsive stuff.' Jazzwise 'Atzmon hits the right note ... a refreshing, quirky satire laced with plenty of the absurd.' The Morning Star

Danny Zilber is a world-acclaimed trumpet player. A constant procession of women traipse through his dressing room, yet none can satisfy his need for love. Until, that is, an encounter with a mysterious woman who leaves just as quickly as she drops her panties ...Murder, sexual manipulation, viral infection, the abduction of Nazis - these are just some of the means Danny's manager and his compatriots employ in order to safeguard the security of Israel and propagate German guilt. Meanwhile Danny holds dear the sole memento he has of that fateful meeting - the brassiere his 'one and only' left behind. Veering from the ridiculous to the sublimely funny, My One and Only Love is a scathingly comic take on Zionist politics and Israeli espionage.
