How often can you say about a harrowing, unquiet book that it makes you wrestle with your soul?" ―Neel Mukherjee, The Times (London) It's 1948 and the Arab villagers of Khirbet Khizeh are about to be violently expelled from their homes. A young Israeli soldier who is on duty that day finds himself battling on two fronts: with the villagers and, ultimately, with his own conscience. Published just months after the founding of the state of Israel and the end of the 1948 war, the novella Khirbet Khizeh was an immediate sensation when it first appeared. Since then, the book has continued to challenge and disturb, even finding its way onto the school curriculum in Israel. The various debates it has prompted would themselves make Khirbet Khizeh worth reading, but the novella is much more than a vital historical document: it is also a great work of art. Yizhar's haunting, lyrical style and charged view of the landscape are in many ways as startling as his wrenchingly honest view of modern Israel's primal scene. Considered a modern Hebrew masterpiece, Khirbet Khizeh is an extraordinary and heartbreaking book that is destined to be a classic of world literature. Review: Extremely well written And heart wrenching - What can I say? The issue of Israeli occupation of Palestine has been going on since World war 2 and no one has been able to anything about it. This book highlights one soldier's conscience of the expulsion and exile of innocent Palestinians from their land. You must read it! Review: A must read - I am probably the one to blame for this not getting five stars. I just couldn't stomach some of the graphic content. I've never served in a military and reading something like this is such a touching and humanist viewpoint. I would recommend this book for a quick read that feels like you're reading about a lifetime. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #381,379 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #323 in Jewish Historical Fiction #2,913 in 20th Century Historical Fiction (Books) #14,721 in Literary Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 183 Reviews | ## Images ![Khirbet Khizeh - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51z3Zl4U7kL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Extremely well written And heart wrenching *by A***S on September 14, 2015* What can I say?

The truth is somewhere in the middle *by N***N on February 26, 2023* Heartfelt story of emotional and moral inner conflict as told in 1949 by an ordinary Israeli soldier of a unit charged w emptying an Arab village of Arab inhabitants who had been on this land, in this village for perhaps tens or hundreds of years... For the sake of creating the new State of Israel... The commentator then shifts his own story (2007) to the Arab villages in the occupied West Bank.. Suggesting that current day action by the Israeli government and settlers is still trying to irradicate the Palestinians to gain more land for Israel.. There is always more to the story still unfortunately unfolding btw the Israelis and the Palestinians... Was President Jimmy Carter right or not right when he tried to broker a broad peace btw the 2 warring parties as he prophesied the consequences of continued war... ???? --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/10286755-khirbet-khizeh](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/10286755-khirbet-khizeh) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-10-31*
