Summary

Jerusalem is not an ordinary city and Crossing Jerusalem is not a standard telling of a city's story. Whilethe author himself is deeply skeptical of religion, this book is both a portrait of a spiritual Jerusalem,and a recounting of the effect the city has on the spirit of one visitor who discovers its ongoing distress- through it he discovers some sort of spirituality in himself.At the same time a travelogue, a questioning of spiritual values, and an examination of the beliefs thathave sustained Jerusalem's populations through centuries of conflict and division, Crossing Jerusalemoffers an unusual and penetrating perspective of the city. While many of the themes the author touchesupon are inevitably sensitive and controversial, Crossing Jerusalem is intended to provoke thought ratherthan antipathy. At a time when both Jewish attitudes and the West's foreign policy options on a MiddleEast solution are evolving, Crossing Jerusalem is now especially relevant.
