(Nonfiction, 224 p. 2018)
A series of letters to an imagined Palestinian neighbor that include both concise histories—of such topics as the history of modern Zionism and the occupation of the West Bank and Gaza—and Halevi’s own memories of growing up an American Jew afraid that Israel would be destroyed in 1967, moving to Israel, and how his romance with the settlement movement ended.
