Description
Set in the West Bank in early 1987, this searing, intimate account follows David Grossman’s encounters with the people living amid occupation—listening to the grief of Palestinian refugees and the moral strain borne by those who enforce the system. Moving beyond slogans, the book traces how violence and fear seep into everyday life, shaping identities, relationships, and the very language people use to survive. With Grossman’s signature lyrical intensity and ethical urgency, it examines the occupation’s human cost for both the occupied and the occupier, asking what it does to conscience, responsibility, and hope. Part reportage and part moral reckoning, it offers a deeply human lens on one of the defining tragedies of our time—urgent, beautiful, and profoundly unsettling.
