To Jerusalem and Back

To Jerusalem and Back A Personal Account

Saul Bellow1998
Here you sit at dinner with charming people in a dining room like any other. Yet you know that your hostess has lost a son, that her sister lost children in the 1973 war - in the domestic ceremony of passed dishes and filled glasses the thoughts of a destructive enemy are hard to grasp. What you do know is that there is one fact of Jewish life left unchanged by the creation of a Jewish State - 'You cannot take your right to love for granted'.
