Opis

Emma Williams arrived in Jerusalem with her three children in August 2000 to join her husband and to work as a doctor. A month later the second Palestinian Intifada erupted. This memoir contributes to our understanding of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and is an account of the humanity and hypocrisy at the heart of it.
