by Valerie Zenatti This unforgettable novel centers on the life of a 17 year-old from Jerusalem, Tal Levin, who yearns for peace in the Middle East. In frustration after a terrorist bomb kills a young woman in a local café, Tal acts on her strong desire to connect with the "other side". She writes a letter, stuffs it in a bottle, sends it to Gaza and then waits to see what will happen. When a young Palestinian man responds by email, a correspondence develops that will ultimately open the teen's eyes (and the readers'!) to each other's lives and hearts. With its epistolary format, this powerful story puts a youthful "face" on the continuing conflict that disrupts lives in the Middle East. |
