If you want a good book about Jews try The Culture of Critique sweetie.

The Chosen for high school tier. It really whitewashes the beliefs and practices of Haredi Jews but it's good for what it is.

Night, for the obligatory muh holocaust.

The Golem and the Jinni

The Yiddish Policeman's Union. If you like it, then check out Chabon's Kavalier and Clay.

This one isn't as well known, but I'd also recommend Dying Inside by Robert Silverberg.

the thing is tho jews in the 20th century aren't doing anything plato wasnt doing 2500 years ago, what could be more "western" than questioning the hell out of everything? to unquestioningly submit to authority is oriental
