Produktbeschreibung

"A brilliant, searing examination of Israel's occupation of the West Bank... beautiful, passionate, and profoundly disturbing" ( Chicago Tribune ).

The Israeli novelist David Grossman's impassioned account of what he observed on the West Bank in early 1987-not only the misery of the Palestinian refugees and their deep-seated hatred of the Israelis, but also the cost of occupation for both occupier and occupied-is an intimate and urgent moral report on one of the great tragedies of our time. The Yellow Windcaused a sensation upon its original publication. Now with a new introduction by the author, it is essential reading for anyone who seeks a deeper understanding of Israel today.

"Even the most cautious readers-and even the most hostile-are bound to learn something about the conflict that they never knew before...something dep and achingly, damningly true." - The New York Times Book Review

"Beautifully written and highly perceptive." - The Guardian (UK)

"Intelligent, sympathetic, resonant and accessible." -Nick Hornby, The Sunday Times (UK)

"A revelation of the Israeli-Arab tragedy, beautifully written not from the politicians point of view but that of the ordinary people living through it. A work by a writer of passionate self-honesty, unafraid to ask terrible questions." -Nadine Gordimer
