Product Description

Review

"'Sharp, powerful and uncompromising... one of the most potent and impressive novels written in Hebrew in the last several years.' Ha'aretz (Israel)"


Product Description

A young journalist, recently married with a young child, is seeking a quieter life away from the city and has bought a large new home in his parent's hometown. It's a complicated return - his wife hates his parents - but they are also moving back to live in an Arab village in Israel. Nothing is as they remember: everything is smaller, the people petty and provincial and the villagers divided between sympathy for the Palestinians and dependence on the Israelis. Suddenly and shockingly, the village becomes a pawn in the never-ending power struggles of the Middle East. When Israeli tanks surround the village without warning or explanation, everyone inside is cut off from the outside world. As the situation grows increasingly dire, paranoia begins to threaten the community's fragile equilibrium, forcing the hero to decide what it means to be human in an inhuman situation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Eye-opening and thought-provoking work, 10 Jan 2008
By K. HARPER "Kourtney" (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Good literature enlightens its readers without being overly didactic, and I would like to congratulate Mr Kashua for creating a character who teaches us something useful about the world outside our own experience, while reminding us that human suffering (whether from the cruelty of a school bully, or because of an army invasion) is universal.
Good plot. Excellent tension. I loved the flashbacks / memories passages. Mostly, though, I think the protagonist is a really complex and interesting fellow.

5.0 out of 5 stars shattered dreams, 13 Aug 2007
By HC (wales) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I read this short book in one sitting. Although it is not very personal, we do not get to know the names of many of the characters, I was gripped by this story. The matter of fact narrative takes us into the lives of Israeli Arabs, from being maginalised at work and in a city of Israel to the narrator's home Arab village and its fate in "peace agreements." With a reporters spare use of language we are taken into the horrors and fragility of Arab society in the sad mess of Israel borders. An excellent, quick read
