Time Tested Books is proud to present a reading and signing with Miko Peled--activist and author of The General's Son: Journey of an Israeli in Palestine--on Thursday, September 20th, at 7:00pm.
In 1997 a tragedy struck the family of Israeli-American Miko Peled: his beloved niece Smadar was killed by a suicide bomber in Jerusalem. That tragedy propelled Peled onto a journey of discovery. It pushed him to re-examine many of the beliefs he had grown up with--as the son and grandson of leading figures in Israel's political-military elite--and transformed him into a courageous and visionary activist in the struggle for human rights and a hopeful, lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians. Esteemed author Alice Walker has contributed a very moving and thoughtful foreword to The General's Son.
Copies of the book are currently available for purchase at TTB.
The event is on Thursday, September 20th, at 7:00pm, and is FREE and open to the public.
