Jerusalem is commonly recognised as the most important positive light source for so many...

in this marvellous work by the late ab yehoshua, the author doesn't ask why this is true, but more accurately than any other work, the author asks how.
yehoshua identifies so many contradictory agents so vivid and life affirming in a way that could surely only be picked out of a desert wind by someone who has Jerusalem in their blood perhaps to the power of three or four generations
The jew and the arab; the child , the adolescent and the adult.the zionist and the anti zionist; the academic and the industrial;
jehoshua once again uses his style of storytelling by soliloque beginning at the 1973 conflict; skipping back to that of 48, then back briefly to 39/45; the balfour deflation andthen back to "73.
in peacetime there is progress of a ae owned and run by a jew and his personnel are Arabs and a genuine industrial relation is being born.
true to character, love is at the heart of all things Israeli, even as unto the dust.
this is a must for any who has a pull to the Holy City, spread the word.
