Description

“I’m a proud Babylonian Jew”.

Carol Isaacs is an author, cartoonist, accordionist and keyboard player.

This is a wonderful creation matched by a wonderful conversation with Carol.

And she’s poured every part of her extraordinary musical and graphic gifts into recounting her family‘s history in Babylon across 2,600 years.

“The Wolf of Baghdad” is a vivid, vital recollection of Jewish life and culture stretching back generation after generation in what is now modern day Iraq.

Jews lived there long before Christianity and Islam spread among its people.

Our episode includes the stirring music, created and performed by Carol in a conversation detailing her inspirations and the drive behind creating it.

Both the Wolf of Baghdad and Jonny Gould’s Jewish State are proudly supported by Dangoor Education.

All the music in today’s episode is performed and composed by Carol Isaacs.
