20TH ANNIVERSARY ISSUE // Happy Birthday JR

It’s been 20 years since the very first issue of JR dropped through letterboxes across the UK… To celebrate this landmark birthday we've launched our first book, Age of Confidence: The New Jewish Culture Wave, along with our new issue, which is packed with great features. Clapham-born musician Jessie Ware talks tells us about reconnecting with her Jewish heritage; we hear from artists, actors, writers and activists about life south of the Thames; Julia Neuberger uncovers the brief but brilliant life of writer Amy Levy; and JR's editor Rebecca Taylor retraces her teenage travels on the 159 bus. Grab a drink and join the celebrations!
