I Want Israel To Live In Peace

The Only Way To Keep A Dream, Any Dream At All, To Keep A Dream Perfect And Rosy And Intact And Unsullied Is Never To Live It Out. The Moment You Carry Out Any Of Your Dreams Or Your Fantasies - Travel Around The World, Climbing A High Mountain, Buying A New House, Writing A Novel, Carrying Out A Sexual Fantasy, Traveling To An Unknown Country - The Moment You Carry Out Your Dreams, It's Always, By Definition Less Perfect And Rosy Than It Had Been As A Dream. This Is The Nature Of Dreams.

Now, Israel Is A Fulfillment, And As A Fulfillment, It Is Flawed. The Fact That It Is Flawed Is Not So Much A Testimony About The Failures Of Israel. No, It Is A Testimony About The Nature Of Dreams.

My Dream For Israel Is Peace, External And Internal Peace.

I Never Regard My Characters, My Protagonists, As Personifications. It's Not That I Sit By My Desk And I Pick Up A Character Who Will Be The Spokesperson Of The Israeli Left, Another One Will Be The Spokesperson Of The Right, Another One Will Be The Spokesperson Of Middle Eastern Jews, European Jews, Religions Jews And So On.

All Of My Novels Are Democracies.
