Recenzii

“[Sand’s] quiet earthquake of a book is shaking historical faith in the link between Judaism and Israel.”—Rafael Behr, Observer
“Anyone interested in understanding the contemporary Middle East should read this book.”—Tony Judt
“Extravagantly denounced and praised.”—New York Times

Descriere
In this bold and ambitious new book, Sand argues that the Israeli national myth has its origins in the 19th century, rather than in biblical times. The author forensically dissects the official story and demonstrates the construction of a nationalist myth.
