<p>Guided Tour is an unlikely romance between an old man and a young woman; a drama about right and wrong; an age-old conflict that works its way out by traditional enemies fighting together against nature and history and death.  Set in the background of the Arab-Israeli conflict, four refugees of various types find themselves in a firing zone where the enemy lurks in a literal and virtual fog.In a race against time, and a fight against death, Guided Tour shows a piligrimage of the kind that can only occur in the Middle East, a journey from Jericho to Jerusalem, where the humor of a dying man and the wisecracks of his unacknowledged partner underline the absurdity of conflict and the healing power of love.</p>

<p>The shops and supermarkets of the developed world paint a false picture of abundance. Acres of shelves contain every prepared food imaginable. There are thousands of square miles of glistening perfect to the eye fruits and vegetables and endless displays of refrigerated meat. Why then should we worry about food? Actually these sights are like a painted screen that hides a desolate landscape. The abundance of the supermarket is a false one. In truth much of humanity is chronically, mercilessly hungry.</p>

Biographies & Memoirs

The War that Would Not Be Named! December 2001-December 2002 These poems chronicle a twelve-month period of homicide bomb attacks in Israel.  Palpable, in your face, raw, emotional re-action to premeditated terror attacks. Every poem paints a picture of mindless, bloodletting, perpetrated by hate-filled extremists, on ordinary people.

Poetry

A TIME FOR CHANGE explores the root causes of the various societal trends within the Jewish world today and challenges to a large degree their Jewish authenticity. A central thesis of this book is that all Jews today, including the religious, follow far more closely a Christian ethic rather than Jewish ideals. The author covers the entire spectrum of the Jewish world, from the secular to the religious, and discusses a great range of topics including religious experience, science , horoscopes, homosexuality, polygamy, materialism versus spirituality, vegetarianism, Rabbinic Judaism, the meaning of the Land and State of Israel, war and peace, intellectual arrogance, the Israeli–Palestinian conflict and many more relevant issues. This book pulls no punches and not many sacred cows emerge unscathed. Warning: Not for the timid. Ten percent of the author’s proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the victims of physical abuse, sexual abuse and terror.
