"Nissenbaum offers a close-up of Assael Street in the Jerusalem neighborhood Abu Tor, one of a few "mixed" residential areas in the city...recounts an almost Romeo-and-Juliet tale of cross-cultural childhood friendship, and various incidents of aggression and kindness that defy easy black-and-white, good-or-bad, perpetrator-victim interpretations of history and politics." --Los Angeles Review of Books
"Want to know why Israelis and Palestinians fight and can they ever stop? Dion Nissenbaum's A Street Divided is a must read. A superb story and a window too that reveals how one small street embodies the immensity of a conflict centuries old." --Aaron David Miller, former US Middle East negotiator in Republican and Democratic Administrations and author of THE MUCH TOO PROMISED LAND and THE END OF GREATNESS
"Award-winning journalist takes us deep into the lives of Jewish and Palestinian neighbors on Jerusalem's most historic and troubled street...[A Street Divided] reads like an epic multigenerational family saga, tracing the interlocking lives of a handful of neighbors whose relationships grow more strained with time." --Minneapolis StarTribune
"The revealing story of a street 'at the epicenter of one of the world's most intractable conflicts'... A must-read for anyone interested in the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian drama." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"A fascinating diagnosis of one of the city's highly combustible fault lines." --Sari Nusseibeh, author of ONCE UPON A COUNTRY: A Palestinian Life
"Nissenbaum writes with such skill and compassion that you don't even notice his dazzling high-wire act: telling both sides of Jerusalem's story with equal respect and understanding. A Street Divided shows the grit, love and humanity of the people living on one of the worlds most fascinating fault lines. This is an essential book - a fresh take for anyone who cares about the Holy Land but has been worn down by the 24-hour news cycle of conflict." --Quil Lawrence, award-winning correspondent for NPR News and author of INVISIBLE NATION: How the Kurds' Quest for Statehood is Shaping Iraq and the Middle East
