Based on the memoirs of a Pearl Harbor survivor. Letters from two pen pals take the reader on a journey into the past, a past where nightmares came true, and when hatred reigned.
Sometimes, vacations just don't turn out the way you hoped they would. An idyllic wilderness house boating get-a-way soon turns into a hellish nightmare...
Former resident and expellee of Neve Dekalim Gush Katif, Israel.
Travel beyond time and beyond location - into my Gush Katif.
Background
Information
Israel's unilateral withdrawal from the Gaza Strip - Gush Katif motivated me to write my debut historic novel, GRAINS OF SAND: THE FALL OF NEVE DEKALIM. I felt an urge to set down on paper, blue ink on white pages, what I was experiencing. I hope that my book will enable people to understand what we, the people of Gush Katif, went through. I hope to put a human face on what have been just facts, numbers. And I hope that the person reading my novel will, for a few hours, travel beyond time and beyond location - into my Gush Katif.
Accomplishments

A recipient of the "Letter of Academic Excellence" from the Israeli Ministry of Education.
