Rituals of Truce and the Other Israeli

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
RITUALS OF TRUCE AND THE OTHER ISRAELI-a highly provocative and infinitely approachable book which confronts history with a generous act of imagination, as it presents us with a practical ethics for the present and for the future of the Israel-Palestine question. The book's title responds to the writings of Palestinian author and human rights activist Raja Shehadeh, who has called for "rituals of truce" between Israelis and Palestinians, with the hope of finding "an other Israeli" in the process. * * * * *
