RESPONSES TO
NEW LIFE JOKE SHOP
“With wit and wisdom, Yosef Wosk has somehow managed to fold the equivalent of a dozen lives of adventure and philosophical study into the span of a single lifetime. Whether entering a hostile nation to assist persecuted Jews, or contemplating conflict, charity, beauty and mortality, he continues to reveal a life of astonishing explorations.” 
— Rachel Rose, author of The Octopus Has Three Hearts, former Poet Laureate of Vancouver

“Wosk’s travels and observations in an original field he calls psychogeography are modern echoes of the Ancient Mariner.”

s
“— Yosef Wosk takes us on a sweeping odyssey of thought, travel, and adventure, defying conventional form and ideas. It’s brilliant!! »
Sasha Colby, author of The Matryoshka Mysteries, Director, Graduate Liberal Studies at Simon Fraser University
