Native: Dispatches from an Israeli-Palestinian LifeSayed Kashua has been praised by the New York Times as "a master of subtle nuance in dealing with both Arab and Jewish society."

Sayed Kashua has been praised by the New York Times as "a master of subtle nuance in dealing with both Arab and Jewish society." An Israeli-Palestinian who lived in Jerusalem for most of his life, Kashua started writing in Hebrew with the hope of creating one story that both Palestinians and Israelis could relate to, rather than two that cannot coexist. He devoted his novels and his satirical weekly column published in Haaretz to exploring the contradictions of modern Israel while also capturing the nuances of family life in all its tenderness and chaos.

Over the last decade, Kashua's humorous essays have been among the most widely read columns in Israel. He writes about fatherhood and marriage, the Jewish-Arab conflict, encounters with prejudice, his professional ambitions, and his love of literature. With an intimate tone fueled by deep-seated apprehension and a razor-sharp ironic wit, he has documented his own life as well as that of society at large--from instructing his daughter on when it's appropriate to speak Arabic (everywhere, anytime, except at the entrance to a mall) to navigating security at Ben Gurion airport (in a Citroen that he'd bought especially for checkpoints: "God in heaven, who ever saw an Arab driving a Citroen?") to opening a Facebook account during the Arab Spring (so that he wouldn't miss the next revolution).

From these events of his everyday life, Kashua brings forth a series of brilliant, caustic, wry, and fearless reflections on social and cultural dynamics as experienced by someone who straddles two societies. Amusing and sincere, Native--a selection of his popular columns--is comprised of unrestrained, profoundly thoughtful personal dispatches.

Stylish and good fit.

Very pretty, and they’re the perfect size for my face, sitting comfortably on my face. No tilting to the side like some glasses I’ve worn.

Great quality
Color: Brown, Lens Width: 37 Millimeters
I normally like to try on sunglasses but these were a deal on the Prime days and I gave them a chance and am so happy I did! They fit really well being not too big and not too small, and they also aren't tight against my head. They came with a case to keep them from being scratched which I truly appreciate. Excellent value for the price.
