The Bomb [Paperback]

Michael Darkow (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 13, 2001

The Bomb is an historical fiction that begins in ancient times with two brothers. The conflict between the two brothers serves as an universal template upon which the dynamics of all human history is transposed. It is the middle novel of a trilogy. Real Characters leads off the trilogy and The Bridge closes it. The Bomb is a suspense story which traces the circular nature of human violence specifically as it has been expressed in the Arab-Israeli conflict. Employing a minimalist literary technique, The Bomb is superficially simple, hopefully readable by as wide a range of audience as is possible while not at all compromising intellectual content. It is a gut wrenching test of heart and conscience, yet teasing enough to be entertaining. Short and succinct, readable in a single sitting, it is a novel designed to challenge and provoke. I believe it is a read you will not easily forget or be able to readily dismiss.

About the Author

Like a phoenix rising up out of its own ashes, the author has stayed the course and championed a wholly original literary style and profoundly provocative philosophical statement. The fruits have had ample time to ripen and mature. They manifest in a style and content, accessible, yet thoroughly uncompromising.
