Title: Days of honey, days of onion
First published: 1991
Description: This study of Israel's Palestinian Arabs is based upon the author's observation of the family of Abu Ahmad, a Palestinian clan living in a village in central Israel. The activities and religious rituals of the family are related, along with the feelings of tension in the wake of the intifada. Through oral testimonies, readers learn how life under the Israeli military government (1949-66), which confiscated enormous tracts of land from native Arabs, left an indelible mark on the family, and how the intifada triggered smoldering anger among family members.
