What I Saw in Heborn

Synopsis

“ My grandmother never spoke about what she saw in Hebron during the massacre of 1929 when she was 16 years old. She was so traumatized that until her dying day, she could never speak about it expect for once. The day after the massacre she wrote about what she had seen. Only after my eldest daughter was born did my father decided to let me read what grandmother had written. At the top of the wrinkled page appear the words: ‘ What I saw in Hebron’. Once I started, I was unable to stop reading.
