Hare writes well, and the piece reads like a fairly interesting, comfortably pared-down travel bit with some political and religious colouring. The drama is about Hare's travels through the Israeli-Palestinian territory. He encounters British Council characters, settlers, leaders, Jews and Palestinians. He listens, records, asks a few questions. The problem cannot be reasoned because reason has very little to do with it.
Hare shows the emotional irrationality of the discussion, on both sides.
There are some entertaining bits in the play. Hare has a good ear, and he sketches the many characters well. The full cast of characters, however, is a bit much. Presented, literally, through Hare, the play seems to demand to be seen as emphatically his very subjective interpretation of them. Perhaps, but really it isn't very revealing about either.
