Don't Ask Me If I Love is the story of a young man who hates war, but serves faithfully in his country's army. He loves his parents, but can no longer care about the things that are important to them. He is a citizen of a religious state, but questions many of its precepts. In need of someone to give meaning to his life he falls in love with an American girl. He is a Assaf Ryke -one of the new Israelis. Moving from a discotheque in Jerusalem to a beach at Caesarea, from a shabby flat in Tel Aviv to an apartment in London, Don't Ask Me If I Love is a novel of love and alienation in the country not normally associated with the generation gap. It Is the Winner of the First M. Evans Fiction Award.

Me encontré este libro en la colección de mi tío, que son básicamente libros viejos no muy conocidos y me interesó el nombre. No tiene portada, y aún así me dió por leerlo.
No sé por qué este libro me resultó tan entretenido, me gustó demasiado. Y a lo largo de la historia pasan cosas nada predecibles, lo cual lo hace bastante sorpresivo. Odié el final, de verdad que sí, pero me gustó.

I found this book in my grandma's house, it used to belong to my grandfather, I decided to read it and it was good, there were 2 or 3 sentences that really got me thinking, however, nothing in this book goes the way you want or expect it, it always has a twist when you least expected. Hated the ending!
