{"product_id":"9781742699202","title":"Winter in Jerusalem","description":"Danielle Green's reasons for returning to the city of her birth, Jerusalem, during the first Lebanon War are twofold: first, she is researching a screenplay that she hopes will make her rich; second, she is seeking a reunion with an autocratic Jewish father who has refused to acknowledge her existence for most of her life. After a separation of many years and many miles, she hopes he will be willing to reconcile with her.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the quest for her past, Danielle is reunited with a former teacher, an old woman of deep wisdom. She falls in love with an Israeli and is drawn into a web of terrorists and nationalists, soldiers and survivors. Yet the confusion, divisiveness and famed aggression of Israel is only the best-known part of an oft-repeated story. The country's progress, hindered as it is by centuries of religious, emotional and political turmoil, provides the backdrop to Danielle's personal journey of growth and self-respect.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlive with the splendour and pulse of Jerusalem itself, Winter in Jerusalem is a stunning story of a woman caught in the crossfire of her own past and the tangled drama of modern Israel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWinner of the inaugural Commonwealth Writers' Prize Best Book Award, Australasian division.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin Pty., Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47157352792304,"sku":"9781742699202","price":11.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781742699202_p0.jpg?v=1763703695","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781742699202","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
