A Most Perplexing Problem

Mornings in Jenin: A Novel

I think you should read this book. It rocked my world, shook me up, made me wonder, made me feel, made me worry. It shocked me to think I could have been so naive, so uninquisitive, so accepting. And it made me think of so many other things I may have failed to notice in my merry, shallow life. It made me grow. It made me ache.

This is a novel, not a historical account. It is mostly one-sided, as it should be. If it wasn't, it wouldn't be so powerful.

Drop what you're doing. Read this book.

Peace, Love, and Stop It,
Jim
