Assaf Gavron's new Novel Takes on Charged Geo-Political Issues with Satire

Assaf Gavron, one of Israel’s most acclaimed young novelists, tells us about his novel The Hilltop, which is both a serious and satirical look at the complex, often absurd reality of life in Israel, West Bank settlements, and the nation's relationship to the United States. The novel is the first to grapple with one of the most charged geo-political issues of our time.
