What people say about the book...
Narrative that immerses us in many countries thanks to the many odd jobs of the author. We realize, especially in relation to Israel, that he predicts - 41 years ago already - that the conflict with the Palestinians is there to last. The variety of his little jobs and their execution, as comical as it is full of suspense, keeps us captivated from one moment to another throughout the entire book.

About the author
Throughout his life, Alain Dizerens has also worked in kabbutz (Israel) and Hong Kong among other places around the world. After a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and several decades of teaching, Alain Dizerens also presented a variety of "crosstalk kinetic" (dance, electro) performances in Geneva in 1986. He has written other books - Miroir-Temps and l'Arpenteur sidéral among many as well as published a number of photo e-books. Written with a poetic touch, his books quickly absorb the reader in a realistically magical universe, which at the same time never lacks a bit humour.
