David Harris-Gershon: What Do You Buy the Children of the Terrorist Who Tried to Kill Your Wife?

When writer David Harris-Gershon and his wife moved to Jerusalem, they were young and full of hope. Then his wife was nearly killed when a bomb ripped open the cafeteria at Hebrew University. Stunned by and confused about the motivation for such an act, David was determined to hunt down his enemy—not for revenge, but out of desperation. Part memoir and part journalistic investigation, Harris-Gershon confronts the personal costs of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and our capacity for recovery and reconciliation.
