A Strange Death: Espionage, Betrayal and Vengeance in a Village in Old Palestine and Israel

Paperback. Condition: Good. In his new book Hillel Halkin brings his wonderful storytelling abilities to another fascinating place and time, the village of Zichron in Palestine in 1917. What everyone in the village agrees is that four members of an anti-Ottoman spy ring were betrayed and subsequently killed, one by her own hand to avoid torture. At the time it was recounted that four of the women in the village were each seen laughing and jeering the night of the betrayal, and that each subsequently died an unnatural death. But was it true? And if so, what connection was there between the women and the spy ring? Halkin scours the artifacts of the village, its ruined homes and ancient residents to piece together the events of nearly 90 years earlier which to this day are the defining legend of the town. Against a backdrop of cypress trees and vine-covered mountains, limestone cliffs and collapsing barns, a hilltop village seemingly of the Languedoc or Provence nestled among vineyards and olive trees, Halkin tells a tale not of the Western Mediterranean, full of blithe romance, but of its Eastern shore. For this is Palestine, and nothing is quite as it seems. Halkin pursues the story of espionage and British gold, of betrayal and deception, of supernatural retribution, of Jews and Arabs living alongside one another in the first half of the twentieth century. It's a journey into the past that shows an alternate future that might have been. It is also, for Halkin, a journey to discover once and for all the story of his home. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

First Edition. A recreation of a village in Palestine and its characters, each gently and carefully called back from the past to tell their stories in a literary narrative. In 1917, the members of a spy ring who sought to assist the British in driving the Turks from Palestine were betrayed. It was said that four women of the town were seen laughing at the arrests of their neighbors. Each met a strange fate: one died prematurely, the second went mad, the third was an invalid and the fourth lived out her life in disrepute. When Halkin read this story of the village that he lived in, it inspired him to begin a journey into the past. His friends and neighbors each offered a different version of the events, and Halkin discovered that each of them was in some way affected by the legendary fate of the spy ring. An exceptional copy; fine in an equally fine dw. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 388 pages; Physical desc. : 388 p. : 1 map ; 23 cm. Originally published: New York : Public Affairs, 2005.
