"It won't be over until we talk." (Colum McCann, Apeirogon)
It might be a good time for everyone able, to read this fictionalized but TRUE account of Bassar and Rami, a Palestinian and an Israeli — two men long taught to hate the other! — whose bond of friendship and shared purpose was born of tragedy, each having lost a young child to the insane violence of war. Their simple but profound message: Peace now. "It won't be over until we talk." A simply stunning account told in captivating form. I would add: "It won't be over until we talk and really listen." Peace now.
