Reader Reviews:
So we are not the only civilised country in the world then? (0/0 people found this helpful)
A very enjoyable story of a country which I knew very little about. Basically it follows the history of a reasonably well off family who can trace their history back many years in this particular part of Palestine. Having a poor understanding of the politics of this area it has helped to provide a view of the other side. Whilst obviously written from one perspective it has given me a desire to partake of further reading from both sides before reaching any firm conclusions!
Highly reccommended.
