Gaza Blues: Different Stories

Front Cover
David Paul, 2004 - Jewish-Arab relations - 172 pages
Two writers, Israeli Etgar Keret and Palestinian Samir El-youssef, have engaged in a challenging and provocative artistic collaboration, producing a book of short stories and a novella exploring different aspects of a fraught and complex situation. Their darkly humorous tales reflect the dreams and nightmares of living in Israel today and during the first Intifada. All of Keret's collections have been best-sellers in Israel and have been translated to high acclaim around the world - into seventeen languages so far - and now, for the first time into English in the UK.
