Arafat's elephant
de Jonathan Tel
"Set in and around Jerusalem, now, in the past, and in the future, this collection introduces us to a wide range of complex characters; some extraordinary in their ordinariness; others lifted from the pages of history; still others with lives given significance simply because of where they are or who they're with at a single moment in time. We meet a young, religious Jewish woman who loses herself in thought and wanders off en route to her arranged marriage, a would-be Islamic terrorist who offers assistance to American vacationers, an Internet millionaire doing his military service, a torturer who writes children's books, an elderly couple rediscovering their love in a coffee factory, and Moshe Dayan while he's having his glass eye fitted.". "These are stories that will give you pause, make you think, challenge your pre-conceptions."--BOOK JACKET.
