The Yellow Wind

The Israeli novelist David Grossman's impassioned account of what he observed on the West Bank in early 1987-not only the misery of the Palestinian refugees and their deep-seated hatred of the Israelis but also the cost of occupation for both occupier and occupied-is an intimate and urgent moral report on one of the great tragedies of our time. The Yellow Wind is essential reading for anyone who seeks a deeper understanding of Israel today.

This edition includes a new afterword by the author.
