With a reporter's eye for detail and a storyteller's knack for nuance, she shares the political, cultural, and family problems the star-crossed lovers faced throughout their courtship. Crossing the Line is not only a reflection on her own story, however; this compelling memoir also offers an intimate look at daily life in Palestinian areas of the Israeli-occupied West Bank; it explores the complexity of loving one's \"enemy\"; and it serves as a tortured love letter to the land and the people who call the place home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a dark moment in the long history of the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians, Crossing the Line is a spot of light that imagines a different future for the two peoples. It is also a universal story about the challenges of overcoming our innermost emotional barriers and making ourselves vulnerable to love.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Red Lightning Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45666660646991,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":875.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9781684352425","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
