More on ‘Jews With Swords’

What is “Jews with swords”?

Not content to live with the very “Snakes on a Plane” title Michael Chabon has cooked up for his 16-part serialized novel, scheduled to first appear in January in the New York Times Magazine, this Web site owner went straight to the source, or next to it, for the answer.

“It’s a swashbuckling adventure story set around the year 1000,” Ayelet Waldman, Chabon’s wife, said in an e-mail. “And that’s all he’ll give you. :)”
