About the Author: Larry Derfner is an Israeli-American journalist, living in Modi\'in, Israel with his wife Philippa and sons Alon and Gilad.
This provocative book blends memoir, reportage, and commentary in a riveting narrative of a society whose mentality of fear and aggression has made it increasingly alien to Jewish liberals.
Taking readers from his boyhood in Los Angeles as the son of Holocaust escapees, through his coming of age amidst the upheavals of 1960s America, to his move to Israel and controversial career in journalism, Derfner explores Israel\'s moral decline through the lens of his own experiences.
