End of the road
End of the Road, Death of a country
End of the Road, Death of a country is a travel book to the country I love. The brutal cowardly state I was born and chose to live. It is a country whose presumptions are wrong, the way it handles its resources is by avoiding them, that defy its inhabitants and that chooses to live in the future, glorify the past, and to ignore the present and hand it away to a chosen minority.
The Happy Man
politically charged novel which tells the fictional, but not impossible, story of the Bedouin rebellion in the Negev desert. It is the story of extraordinary people, who find themselves caught in a game of life and death but are determined to realize their dreams, while they fight over the desert. At the same time it is a story of the desert – of the endless generosity of nature, the mute and powerfull witness of the human hopes, loves, despair and emptiness.

Shanti Shanti Balagan
In early september 2001 Dorit and Tsur Shezaf took their three daughters (ages 14, 11 and 8) for a year long family tour of India, with no school and no work. They discover a land of marvels, complex, colourful and intoxicating: hidden valleys in the Himalayas, a long journey on camels in Rajasthan, a full moon party in Goa, spiritual supermarkets in Pune and Dharamsala, Israeli colonies in Pushkar and Hampi; from Amritsar to Kochi, from Mahabalipuram to Kolkota and from Varanasi to a short walk around the Anapurna which almost costs them their lives. Shanti Shanti Balagan is a book about Israelis in India, one particular Israeli family in India, and about an India that embraces them all.
