"Three comic writers have some fun with Passover. Seders may never
be the same." --USA Today "A full-fledged comic assault on
Passover... Finally, someone has created a full Haggadah that is
not only fun to read, but isn't covered in wine stains... For This
We Left Egypt? runs riot with the Haggadah and takes readers from
the sophomoric to the sublimely funny." --The Forward
"Three well-known humorists have written a Haggadah for an
overlooked crowd: the wiseguys, cutups, and punsters who frankly
have a hard time taking the whole thing seriously." --Jewish
Telegraph Agency "[Barry, Zweibel, and Mansbach] have joined forces
to come up with the perfect humoristic antidote to this Passover
ritual... [For This We Left Egypt?] is a loudly humorous, acerbic
parody of the haggadah, as it dissects every aspect of the Passover
holiday... All in all, a new Passover tradition can be established
with For This We Left Egypt?" --Montreal Times "A must-have for
those who collect haggadot or for anyone who loves a laugh. If
you're looking to lighten up your seder, you might read a page or
two from it. Just be careful, though: people might refuse to turn
back to the traditional text." --The Reporter "[For This We Left
Egypt?] brings a fair measure of levity to a holiday when leavening
is banned. The book is both reverential and irreverent." --New York
Jewish Week "A hilarious take on Passover." --Long Island Pulse
