Coexistence after Gaza
Wife went yesterday with Noam to a screening in east Jerusalem of Coexistence My Ass, which is one of four films about the Palestine-Israel conflict that have been shortlisted for this year's Oscar in the documentary category.

The film is about the standup comedian Noam Shuster Eliassi, who grew up in the village, which is apparently shown quite a bit in the film.

The screening was at the Educational Bookshop, one of the best bookstores in the region. So D sent me a photos of the books on display there.

Among them I chose The World After Gaza, by Pankaj Mishra, a brilliant Indian writer, who writes from a post-colonial perspective. His writings are always superbly researched and I had been wanting to read this important book.
