Reviews by Mary Ray, USA

"This book is not what I expected. Yes, it is a love story, but it is so much more. In a way, I got a crash course on the Palestinian Israeli conflict. While it is impossible to get a balanced perspective on this conflict, Georgy does an excellent job of presenting both sides with an honest and human perspective. There is a fictional debate between two intellectual heavy weights that I truly enjoyed. In reality, the Palestinian scholar, Edward Said and one of Israel’s founding fathers, Abba Eban never debated or even met, but Georgy does a masterful job of imagining what the debate would have been like. The ending was simply too much for me and I was unable to control my emotions. Absolution is a compelling book that would fascinate readers with a desire to explore this conflict."
