Ari Shavit presents My Promised Land: The Triumph and Tragedy of Israel
Evelyn Rubenstein Jewish Community Center
Houston, TX
Share this event:


Ari Shavit, one of the most influential journalists writing about the Middle East today, discusses his authoritative and deeply personal history of Israel. Facing unprecedented internal and external pressures, Israel is at a moment of existential crisis. In My Promised Land, the author captures this essence with feeling, foreboding and ratiocination.

Drawing on interviews, historical documents, private diaries, and letters, as well as his family's story, Shavit illuminates the pivotal moments of the Zionist century in a riveting narrative, both personal and national. Following his military service as a paratrooper in the IDF, Shavit studied philosophy at the Hebrew University.

He currently serves on the editorial board of Haaretz and is a leading commentator on Israeli public television. "The bookhas the capacity toreinventtheconversation about how Israel's complex past ought to shape its still-uncertain future." -Daniel Gordis
