In 2013, bestselling author Tuvia Tenenbom (Alone Among Germans) embarked on a journey of discovery through Israel. Thirty years after leaving his homeland for the USA, he returned, as the son of a rabbi, to gain his own perspective on how Israel's cultural and political identity has changed. He traveled extensively across the country: from the Gaza Strip to the Golan Heights, from Eilat to the Hezbollah positions in the north. Soon, he realizes that to truly understand this land, one must speak with everyone: ultra-Orthodox and atheists, fundamentalists of all kinds, kibbutzniks and settlers, rabbis and imams, mystics and intellectuals, military personnel and secret agents, Israeli celebrities and Palestinian politicians, journalists and NGO activists, and much more. The result of this journey.
