However, the moment she met her future husband, that search for identity would become more fraught and complicated than she had ever imagined possible. She was a Bengali-Indian-Bangladeshi with a Hindu-Muslim background; he was a Jew with a passion for Arab-Jewish coexistence in the Middle East. They married, pursued careers as journalists, had children, and moved to Jerusalem. This catapulted Lipika into a world where freedom from cultural identity is unheard of. From the school you choose for your children to the wine you buy--you take sides at every turn and the question becomes--which side? This is a story of two people who are passionately in love, and choose to fight for their marriage in spite of numerous obstacles. It is also a portrait of one of the most emotive cities in the world. By allowing the reader to accompany her as she tries to make sense of Jerusalem, Pelham gives a brilliantly compelling and subtle insight into the complexities of daily life in Israel. Full of vivacity and energy, The Unlikely Settler is a plea for understanding and compromise as a solution to all conflicts, domestic and global"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 828.9203 Pelham Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList
