Reviews

Facing the Glass Booth is a superb translation from the original Hebrew account by Haim Gouri containing the sensitive and profound insights and observations of a journalist/poet who attended the drama unfolding in Jerusalem in April, 1961 as a reporter for the newspaper Lamerhav. Gouri's reportage-c�m-literary work provides a fascinating account of unimaginable evil as well as extraordinary epic of survival that lays bare the physical and emotional scars of the victims and the painful self reproach of many survivors.-- "Jewish Book World"
