Description for The Liberated Bride
Paperback. Contemporary Israeli novel about a professor trying to understand two things: the Arab mind and the secret of his son's failed marriage. Num Pages: 576 pages. BIC Classification: FA. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 215 x 138 x 41. Weight in Grams: 616.
Professor Yohanan Rivlin has two obsessions, the first and most ambitious, is to understand the Arab mind - no mean feat in itself though perhaps made easier by the fact that he lives and works with Israeli Arabs. The second - and more personal, though equally hard to grasp - is to understand the failure of his elder son's marriage.
Rivlin's two quests lead him to extraordinary - and at times highly entertaining - encounters with very disparate people, where the personal becomes intertwined with the political, as he searches out the truth both in politics and life.
