Review
"Sarah Tuttle-Singer has taken her experiences of the city of Jerusalem and crafted a masterpiece of her heart. Sarah's distinctive voice will give you the chills on every single page as she celebrates the beauty of Jerusalem while detailing the complexity of loving a city so embattled, so diverse, and so difficult. This book is simultaneously a love letter and a declaration of frustration; a poem and a song; a masterpiece of confusion and undying affection." —Mayim Bialik"Sarah Tuttle-Singer's book is a real love story, maybe even a love song, for the city of Jerusalem. In this brilliant and fascinating book, Tuttle-Singer brings us Jerusalem in all its ugliness and beauty, darkness and light, bad and good. With the honest, funny, and sad stories of her life and of the city, one can not stop reading until the end." —Avi Issacharoff, journalist and co-creator of the hit TV series "Fauda""Raw, dark, funny, this book brings you closer to the truth of the Old City today than any other I’ve read. Sarah Tuttle-Singer captures the sensuality, anger, and promise of the Holy City in a narrative that moves from one incredible true story to another. Her pilgrimage is intimate, irreverent, unashamed—and written with haunting beauty." —Rob Eshman, former editor in chief of the Jewish Journal“An intimate, bracingly honest, beautifully written memoir of life in the most captivating city in the world.” —Peter Beinart, author, The Crisis of Zionism"Sarah Tuttle-Singer, who loves Jerusalem passionately, offers us an unvarnished, intimate, and sometimes shocking look at life within the walls of the Old City. Her stories of modern existence in ancient Jerusalem come to life through in-depth portraits of this historic city’s residents. In spite of the fact that perspectives are deeply polarized, and fear and interpersonal conflict are a constant reality, Sarah Tuttle-Singer gives us the 'real dirt' that shows us that co-existence is not only possible but happening each and every day. This is a hard-hitting book about hope that offers us glimmers of humanity that can help us imagine a time of peace and acceptance that, today, seems so far away." —Peter Yarrow (Peter, Paul & Mary)"Sarah Tuttle Singer has written a brave, honest, and fiercely personal love letter to Jerusalem. Whether you've lived there your whole life or have never been, she is the tour guide you want to the world's most beautiful and broken city." —Daniel Sokatch, CEO of the New Israel Fund"Dangerous. Seductive. Laugh out loud funny. Sarah Tuttle-Singer has created a savvy and sexy Innocents Abroad for the internet age. Tuttle-Singer's stories are at once wildly original yet vaguely familiar, weaving nostalgia for her former life as a free-spirited moppet on Venice Beach with indefatigable optimism for peace in Jerusalem, her adopted ancestral home. Jerusalem Drawn and Quartered is a revelation and the best of the new voices covering the world's most maddening conflict: the millennial struggle for the Holy Land." —James Oppenheim, co-founder and lover-in-chief of Crave Gourmet Street Food"Part searing personal memoir, part psychic and political exploration, this is Jerusalem’s Song of Songs, an exquisitely written love poem to a city at the centre of many universes. It also marks the debut of a major new talent. Sarah Tuttle-Singer is a force to be reckoned with." —David Rose, contributing editor with Vanity Fair and a special investigations writer for The Mail on Sunday"Beautiful, intense, mad, exhilarating: Sarah Tuttle-Singer hasn't just written a terrific book about Jerusalem, she's written a book that is now a part of Jerusalem. Taking us through the back alleys of the Old City, she introduces us to its world-class characters, their dreams and fears and most of all daily lives. In Sarah Tuttle-Singer, earthy Jerusalem has found its lover." —Yossi Klein Halevi, author, Letters to My Palestinian Neighbor"If you love Jerusalem, you will love this book. Sarah Tuttle-Singer in her life love affair with the city, new and old, people from across the political and religious divide brings it all together like only Sarah could. Jerusalem Drawn and Quartered is a rollercoaster of culture, senses, emotions, and experiences. It reads like a diary, a very personal diary with dark secrets, but reflects the holy city that is so much for so many and has so many secrets of its own." —Lieutenant Colonel Peter Lerner, retired IDF spokesperson

Sarah Tuttle-Singer, in her lyric and soulful prose, captures both the light and the shadows, the holiness and the heaviness, of one of the world's most magnificent, maddening places. In a bold and deeply personal journey, she searches bustling alleyways and ancient stones, intimate rooms and holy texts, to unlock the secrets to Jerusalem's beauty, energy, and pain, which are found, most of all, in the souls of its inhabitants." ―Daniel B. Shapiro, Former U.S. Ambassador to Israel"Jerusalem Drawn and Quartered is a vivid evocation of the city in all its contradictions, showing its Jews and Arabs with their mutual fears and hatreds and contempt that do not altogether preclude moments of shared humanity. The story of the city is also the story of Sarah Tuttle-Singer, which is told affectingly, with unblinking honesty." ―Robert Alter, author of The Art of Biblical Narrative"Sarah Tuttle-Singer brings Jerusalem's Old City to life like no writer before her―penning a ferocious love letter that will infuriate zealots and enthrall most everybody else. . . . Written with too much real-world knowledge to be easily dismissed by more conventional experts, Tuttle-Singer's book is ultimately a plea for Jerusalem, as she puts it, not to be 'ripped to ragged pieces by those who say they love her the best.' If there were more Jerusalemites like her, that simple, elusive aspiration might even be realized." ―David Horovitz, Editor, The Times of Israel

Tuttle-Singer is a very good writer. However, this memoir is in the end a rather progressive and inaccurate view of the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. While true that she has spent considerable time in Israel, and much of it in Jerusalem, she fails to bring a sharp focus onto why there is such bitter turmoil surrounding this wonderful city. I have been to Israel, twice, the last time in 2015 just before the rash of stabbings she describes. It is not her imagery that is lacking, but rather her post modern world view where all the participants of the golden city seem to share equal blame for the bloodshed and lack of peace. No where does she mention the fact that most Arab, and all Palestinians, leaders refuse to recognize Israel's right to exist. In fact, they would prefer that all Jews in the country be driven into the sea.She bemoans the fact that Arab boys are frisked too hard or beaten by Israeli soldiers, all while they could be the next stabbing perp. She never mentions the Palestinian practice of rewarding the families of dead terrorists. She equates Israeli terrorists with Arab ones so that they share equal blame in her mind. She points out that one of her son's teachers told her all Arabs were terrorists. While of course this in not true, at least Israeli schools do not teach and perpetuate the myth of Jewish blood libel, where for centuries they have been taught that Jews make Matzoh from Arabic children's blood. She never mentions that if the Palestinian leaders would only accept Israels"s right to exist there could be peace tomorrow.All memoirs are of of course self-indulgent. However, she must have mentioned at least a dozen times during the course of the book the details of her stoning at the Damascus gate many years ago. Two or three times would have been more than enough. Her abusive relationships with at least two men also contribute nothing to the story.I found myself about half way through this work wanting it to get better and finally just to end. She does describe in detail the many interesting characters living inside the city's quarters, but had I not visited there myself, I am not sure I would have felt and sensed the deeply religious flavors that flow there. She at least twice says she feels nothing but stone when she touches the Western, (Wailing) Wall. As a Jew I don't even know how that is possible.She is more excited by Tinder hook-ups, hashish, and and body piercings and tattoos. Perhaps it is generational but I can't relate to these things. In the end the trouble I am having is that this book has more to do about her than about Jerusalem.The idea and title for the book are tantalizing and she writes well. However, I found myself not being able to wait for it to end. And that is sad.
“Mermaids Can Go Anywhere†Sara Tuttle-Singer gives us a colorful story of the heartbeat of Jerusalem drawn in vivid colors for all of us to savor. In a potent mixture of joy, sadness, and occasional despair, the author lays bare her personal feelings as well as the heartbeat of a city and its people. Her desire to live in every quarter of the city exposes the joy, the horror, the danger of daily life in the in the city. At the same time, she introduces us to a colorful cast of characters, Jew, Christian, and Arab alike to magical secret places and rooftops not available to the tourist throng. It’s a shame that these people live their lives behind invisible walls, never looking at their neighbors. Her mermaid tattoo is a symbol of her desire to understand the people and neighborhoods by living in every quarter of the city. By living as a mermaid, Sara experiences everything and watching with her keen eye, Sara can pass through, because, no one pays attention to the mermaid. Mermaids, you see, never really fit in. While on this exploration of the city, the mermaid goes everywhere. Sara takes us along for this journey of discovery, and, we are enriched for it. If only more people followed Sara’s example, perhaps, the conversation can begin among the residents and a way forward can be found, finding the universal dignity in each other’s lives.
Jerusalem has always been on my list of "must visit" places. But when I read what Ms. Tuttle-Singer wrote and the gorgeous photographs in the Old City, I felt a pull to Jerusalem that I had never felt before. The kind of pull and longing that you feel about your childhood home.I love how the author has so immersed herself in the people of the Old City but she never abandoned herself or her own identity. She was a welcome visitor, an honored guest, a returning friend to the denizens of this ancient but timeless place.Thank you, Ms. Tuttle-Singer. Your work is a revelation and a gift.
I am a Sarah Tuttle-Singer reader thru subscription to the Times of Israel and her personal Facebook for five plus years. I read her because she is fresh, insightful and fun thinking to this highly conflicted region. With her new book Sarah becomes legend.Jerusalem has a "mermaid" who sings a siren song for all the multitudes of the city. And what a raw, honest ballad it is. For anyone, at a thinking level, interested in this region this is a must read. I am sending a copy to Jared and Ivanka Kushner with a request to read. My bet is Ivanka will meet the mermaid over coffee ☕and that will have far reaching impacts in peace for Jerusalem.
