The inbetween people

About this book

When Avi Goldberg, the son of a Jewish pioneer, sits at a desk in a dark cell in a military prison in the Negev desert, he fills the long nights writing about his friend Saleem, an Israeli Arab he befriended on a beach one scorching July day and the story of Saleem's family, whose loss of their ancestral home in 1948 cast a long shadow over their lives.
