  1. 1. Exile In The Promised Land

    A Memoir

    This memoir recounts the journey of a feminist activist who emigrated from the United States to Israel in the 1960s, seeking to be part of the Zionist dream. The narrative delves into her political and personal life, detailing her experiences as one of the first women to serve in the Israeli Knesset, her advocacy for women's and LGBTQ rights, and her eventual disillusionment with the realities of Israeli politics and society. The book offers a candid look at the complexities of Israeli life, the challenges of immigration and identity, and the struggle to reconcile idealism with the often harsh political and social landscape of the Promised Land.
