Produktbeschreibung

'beguiling' The Guardian

'a bold investigation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict' Tikkun

In February 2000, the writer Richard Zimler met a mysterious dancer at an Australian literary festival, only to witness her tragic suicide the next day. This shocking act was to trigger an investigation into her past that would alter the course of his life forever.

His search initially leads him to the tranquillity and tolerance of 1950s Israel, where he learns of the powerful sisterhood forged between two girls - one Palestinian, one Israeli. But as Zimler is drawn deeper into their story, he uncovers illusion, deceit and - most shocking of all - a connection to the most horrifying atrocity of the twenty-first century.

At once a memoir and a thriller, The Search for Sana sees the internationally bestselling author of the Sephardic Cycle create an unflinching exploration of lifelong friendship, loyalty, cruelty and dispossession.
