Description
The Glory by Herman Wouk is a sprawling and action-packed novel that plunges into the violence and upheaval of Israel in 1967. This follow-up to The Hope continues the stories of its multiple characters as they navigate the dramatic struggle for survival across the years. Shifting between Jerusalem, Washington, Los Angeles, and Paris, this book takes readers through pivotal moments such as the Six-Day War, the Entebbe rescue, and airstrikes on Saddam Hussein's nuclear reactor. It is a story of a beleaguered country and the men and women who fought for Israeli Independence, exploring both the broad significance of this time in history and its personal impact on those who lived through it. Illuminating the inner lives of real leaders, Wouk tells a compelling tale that shines a light on Israel's struggle to exist.
