"Grossman's normal genre is fiction, but he ventures into nonfiction here to discuss Israel's occupation. He's no good at this genre, either. Maybe we'll get lucky and he'll take up coquetting or needlepoint next time."
"In this book, Grossman describes several interviews he had with people in Israel & Palestine, both Jews and Arabs, from just about every perspective you can imagine. I read this book for a class in Intercultural Communication.
In reading this book, the stories behind the headlines becomes personal. I found this book to be a little depressing, actually, because it it paints a picture of how little hope the involved people have for peace in their land. I do recommend the book, but just be aware that it may have an emotional impact."
"This is a moving tale of how the Palestinians and Israelis live on the same land. Grossman has published updated versions of this book twice over two decades."
"This was an eye-opener. It made me really angry and upset and more knowledgeable about the Israel-Palestine conflict. This is a must-read for anyone who cares to know about the mental state of various beleaguered Palestinians and Israelis."
