ONE HAND ALONE CANNOT CLAP (Paperback)

In this unique and fascinating book, Greville Janner describes an extraordinary journey. To ease his sorrow on the death of his wife and to experience a completely different way of life, he travelled to Sakhnin, an Arab town in northern Israel. Warmly welcomed into the heart of an Arab family, he immersed himself in their lives, their language and their customs. With his passionate belief in the need for understanding between the Jewish and Muslim peoples, Janner saw for himself that 'one hand alone cannot clap', and that mutual understanding and tolerance is crucial to a decent society. Combining the perception of the seasoned traveller in a new world with his warmth and faith in humanity, Janner writes of his stay in Sakhnin from a unique perspective.
