A Recent History of the Promised Land,
By Rena Alisa (Los Gatos, California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: This Promised Land (Paperback)
This is a throughly enjoyable book -- a fictional history of Israel covering the period between the late 1800's and the Balfore Declaration. Gloria Goldreich manages to turn a lot of 'history' into a very charming and readable story of a family as they settle the land that will eventually become the State of Israel. The characters are fascinating and well drawn. Their relationships with their Arab neighbors and the Turkish authorities interesting and accurately rendered. A vast amount of Jewish history has been packaged in this small, delightful book.
