Summary

A multi-generational saga with cultural and political depth, drawing on the rich, often troubling recent history of Israel, for fans of A History of Seven Killings or The White Tiger.

How do you build a nation?

It takes statesmen and soldiers, farmers and factory workers, of course. But it also takes thieves, prostitutes and policemen.

Nation-building demands sacrifice. And one man knows exactly where those bodies are buried: Cohen, a man who loves his country. A reasonable man for unreasonable times.

A car bomb in the back streets of Tel Aviv. A diamond robbery in Haifa. Civil war in Lebanon. Rebel fighters in the Colombian jungle. A double murder in Los Angeles.

How do they all connect? Only Cohen knows.

Maror is the story of a war for a country's soul–a dazzling spread of narrative gunshots across four decades and three continents.

It is a true story. All of these things happened.

Profile Image for movie moghul

Being Israeli might help with the names

Overall its a good factional novel. I lived in Israel for 2x6mths periods so I understood the cultural aspects and fragmented lifestyles. Its an exciting country providing youre not a moslem! I'm sure it'll make a great movie. But I did find the narration a tad tedious with everyone sounding like they were out of an accents comedy show.
