Jerusalem Confession
by (bangladesh) Lipika Perahan
About This Novel
This is a confession of life in a foreign land that explores acceptance in conflict and finds hope in despair. Lipika grew up in Bangladesh. Pellahan, with her British-Jewish husband Leo, moved into Jerusalem, a culturally rich and controversial sacred place. Facing the impact of the new environment, their marriage was once in jeopardy. Caught in the intractable "Israeli-Palestine conflict", Pellahan started from his personal experience, took his marriage as the axis, and then looked around, realizing the opposition and hatred, contradictions and misunderstandings of the local people; he recorded the conflict of cultures and the discord of life. The rootless soul is trying to find a home. In the interaction between the inner world and the external environment, although it is blurry, it is still trying to outline an image of reconciliation and hope in this complicated city.

Quite shocking!
It's not easy for the author!
A very good book, from which you can understand the reasons why the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is irreconcilable! I very much support Leo's one-country solution, so that all people in this region can live in peace and equality, so that they can enjoy the rights and happiness they should have! I wish this day had come sooner! Bless them! :
