A chance encounter in New York brings two strangers together: Liat
is an idealistic translation student, Hilmi a talented young
painter. Together they explore the city, share fantasies, jokes and
homemade meals, and fall in love. There is only one problem: Liat
is from Israel, Hilmi from Palestine. Keeping their deepening
relationship secret, the two lovers build an intimate universe for
two in this city far from home. But outside reality can only be
kept at bay for so long. After a tempestuous visit from Hilmi's
brother, cracks begin to form in the relationship, and their points
of difference - Liat's military service, Hilmi's hopes for
Palestine's future - threaten to overwhelm their shared present.
When they return separately to their divided countries, Liat and
Hilmi must decide whether to keep going, or let go. A prizewinning
bestseller, but banned in Israeli schools for its frank and tender
depiction of a taboo relationship, this is the deeply affecting
story of two people trying to bridge one of the most deeply riven
borders in the world.
