Listed for sale is a First Edition Novel by Leon Uris, Mitla Pass. Mitla Pass is the impassioned story of Gideon Zadok, a modern man trapped by his own contradictions: ambition and fear; desire and obligation; the past and his future. Woven into a tapestry of voices--Gideon’s, his family’s, his wife, and friends, we are taken from the pogrom-cursed Russian shtetls to the American dream; from Hollywood in its heyday to the new state of Israel in 1956. Gideon Zadok arrives in Israel with every intention to research a new book, mend a broken marriage and improve his dysfunctional family. But as political tensions escalate and his family is evacuated, Zadok asks to follow Israeli paratroopers to secure Mitla Pass and finds himself in the midst of one of the largest global crises of the twentieth century. A sweeping novel of love, passion, and freedom, Mitla Pass stands as an epic look at modern Middle Eastern History and is quite possibly Uris's most autobiographical work.
