Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. Mary Holden (front cover photograph) (illustrator). 24 cm. viii, 273, [7] pages. Index. Marek Halter is a French-Jewish writer and activist, known best for his historical novels, which have been translated into English, Polish, Hebrew, and many other languages. In 1968, he founded together with his wife, Clara Halter, the magazine Élements, which published equally works by Israeli, Palestinian, and Arab writers. His first book, a political autobiography, Le Fou et les Rois (The Jester and the Kings) was awarded the Prix Aujourd'hui in 1976. Other works include The Messiah, The Mysteries of Jerusalem, The Book of Abraham (1986) and its sequel, The Children of Abraham (1990), The Wind of the Khazars (2003) -a piece of historical fiction about the Khazars, a nomadic kingdom of Turkic people in the Caucasus who converted to Judaism-, Sarah (2004), Zipporah (2005), Lilah (2006), and Mary of Nazareth (2008). Personal memoirs and political history, from Halter's birth in the Warsaw Ghetto, his escape to Russia, and his staunch advocacy of Arab rights over the past 30 years. Derived from Publisher's Weekly: Halter became a highly regarded Paris-based artist. This vivid autobiography, describing his experiences as an exiled Jew in Russia, Uzbekistan and now in France, centers on his ceaseless struggle to help bring peace to the Middle East. Halter and his wife formed a group of intellectuals who tried to succeed where diplomats and soldiers had failed: in setting up favorable conditions for dialogue between Arabs and Israelis. In their magazine Elements, in political conferences and in visits to Israel and the Arab countries, they provided forums for such conversations. Halter's fast-moving account of his meetings with De Gaulle, Mendes-France, Ben-Gurion, Golda Meir, Dayan, Begin, Heykal, Sadat, Sana Hasan, Arafat and other leaders swings between hope and despair but is always heartfelt. 1st English Language Edition [stated]. First Printing [stated].

Also includes Index. His first book, a political autobiography, Le Fou et les Rois (The Jester and the Kings) was awarded the Prix Aujourd'hui in 1976. From 1951, when he first visited Israel, until today, Marek Halter has been both a staunch supporter of Israel and, at the same time, a fierce advocate of Arab rights. An Impossible position? Difficult, surely, but as this moving memoir shows, not impossible. This eloquent work offers both a political history of those three turbulent decades and a personal memoir attesting to the fact that one man, armed only with conviction and desire, can help change the face of history. Marek Halter is a French writer and activist, known best for his historical novels, which have been translated into English, Polish, Hebrew, and many other languages. He was born in Warsaw, Poland in 1936. During World War II, he and his parents escaped from the Warsaw Ghetto and fled to the Soviet Union, spending the remainder of the war in Ukraine, Moscow and finally in Kokand, in Uzbekistan. In 1946 the family returned to Poland and in 1950, they emigrated to France, taking up residence in Paris. He studied pantomime under Marcel Marceau. He was admitted to the École nationale des beaux-arts to study painting. In 1954, he received the Deauville international prize, and was also awarded a prize at the Biennale d'Ancone. His first international exhibit was in 1955 in Buenos Aires, and he remained in that city for 2 years, returning to France in 1957, where he engaged in political journalism and advocacy. Derived from a Kirkus review: A recounting of his efforts over the years to promote Arab-Israeli understanding. Here is the depiction of a man obsessed with bringing about an Arab-Israeli rapprochement. Many of the pages deal with missed opportunities, unfulfilled initiatives, chronic misunderstandings. Some of the most effective passages relate to the student riots that swept Paris in 1968. Here, Halter is able to capture in telling images the excitement and idealistic strivings of the time. Elsewhere, his book is interesting as a self-portrait of a dedicated man. First English Language Edition [stated]. First printing [stated].
