The Haj

By Leon Uris

Book Overview

"The narrative is fast paced, bursting with action, and obviously based on an intimate grasp of the region, its peoples, their tradition and age-old ways of life."-- John Barkham Reviews Leon Uris retums to the land of his acclaimed best-seller Exodus for an epic story of hate and love, vengeance and forgiveness and forgiveness. The Middle East is the powerful setting for this sweeping tale of a land where revenge is sacred and hatred noble. Where an Arab ruler tries to save his people from destruction but cannot save them from themselves. When violence spreads like a plague across the lands of Palestine--this is the time of The Haj .

Customer Reviews

Racist, islamaphobic misguided novel full of lies and perceived white supremacy.

For real history on Palestine from the perspective of natives read THE HUNDRED YEARS WAR ON PALESTINE by Rashid Khalidi or Image and Reality of the Israel–Palestine Conflict by Norman Finkelstein an American scholar whose family was wiped out during the WWll holocaust. JUST TO NAME A FEW AMONG MANY.
