Kahdra, Yasmina. The attack, New York : Nan A. Talese, Doubleday, 2006.
In this book, the authors turn his attention to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in this moving story of a Bedouin Arab surgeon, Dr Amin Jaffri who struggles to be integrated into Israeli society. The doctor’s life is turned upside down when there is a suicide-bomb attack near the hospital where he practises and he learns that his beloved wife, who perished in the attack, is the terrorist responsible. To make sense of it all, Jaffri plunges into the Palestinian territories to discover the truth and the forces that enabled his wife to be recruited as a terrorist.
A powerful and engrossing story.
