I highly recommend this book. It's an interesting literary perspective on the second intifada. It is told in two first person narratives that alternate chapters; one is of an israeli man who survives three terrorist attacks in one week, and the other is the voice of a palestinian terrorist. Gavron is a good writer and storyteller. I actually met him after a reading in london last weekend, where he said to get the voice of the palestinian (he himself is Israeli and was stationed in gaza during the first intifada) he had palestinians reading the manuscript as he wrote those sections. This is his first book to be translated into English from Hebrew.
