The Liberated Bride by Ab Yehoshua
Professor Yohanan Rivlin has two obsessions, the first and most ambitious, is to understand the Arab mind - no mean feat in itself though perhaps made easier by the fact that he lives and works with Israeli Arabs. The second - and more personal, though equally hard to grasp - is to understand the failure of his elder son's marriage. Rivlin's two quests lead him to extraordinary - and at times highly entertaining - encounters with very disparate people, where the personal becomes intertwined with the political, as he searches out the truth both in politics and life.
Born in Jerusalem in 1936, A.B. Yehoshua is one of Israel's pre-eminent writers. He teaches Comparative Literature at the University of Haifa.
