Negative Positive
Title: Extremely engaging!
Review: This is the first book I have ever read about Israel--and the reason I grabbed it in the bookstore is the same reason I enjoyed it so much--it grabs a hold of you and won't let go! On his trip around the country, he speaks to so many people, all of whom seem to feel *very passionately* about the issues they're discussing. At times I was shocked by the anger of people I would've stereotype as peaceful, and amazed at the quiet ernestness of people I would have stereotyped as pure fury. (Not that I advocate stereotyping ;o) I really felt like I was there, watching these conversations, and I wanted more . . . Originally I was looking for a book to give me a feel for what is going on in that part of the world, to get an understanding of why the struggle for peace has been so long . . . I felt that this book did exactly what I asked.
Is the review positive or negative?
