Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

""Exile" is an astonishing book, a hugely entertaining human drama that also offers remarkable insight into the lethal conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. Richard North Patterson has outdone himself--"Exile" is his best novel yet."--Bill Clinton "Through his artful writing, Patterson presents compelling arguments for both sides while avoiding a preachy tone -- a pitfall a lesser writer easily could succumb to.
Weaving a powerful love story into this vast portrait of political divisiveness is no small feat, but Patterson does it gracefully... In "Exile," Patterson has redefined himself as a writer willing to take risks while seeking to understand one of the world's seemingly unsolvable problems."--"USA Today"

Reseña del editor:

David Wolfe is a successful American lawyer being primed for a run for Congress. But when the phone rings and he hears the voice of Hana Arif—the Palestinian woman with whom he had a secret affair in law school—he begins a completely unexpected journey.

The next day, the prime minister of Israel is assassinated by a suicide bomber while visiting San Francisco. Soon, Hana is accused of being the mastermind behind the murder. Now David faces an agonizing choice: Will he, a Jew, represent her?

The most challenging case of David's career requires that he delve deep into the lives of Hana and her militant Palestinian husband, all the way back to Israel and the West Bank. There he uncovers the couple's dangerous connections...culminating in an explosive trial where the stakes are Hana's life—and the future of two peoples.
