Scribe UK are delighted to be publishing My Promised Land, Ari Shavit's groundbreaking account of modern-day Israel, this February.
Just released in the US, it has drawn widespread acclaim already, winning a pre-publication literary award from the Natan Fund and being named one of the New York Times '100 Notable Books of the year' and as an Economist Book of the Year.
Rights to the book have sold into eight countries, and the book is already on its sixth US printing, after debuting at number 12 in the New York Times bestseller lists. It has drawn the praise of Pulitzer Prize winner Thomas Friedman, philosopher Raimond Gaita, and former Prime Minister of Israel, Ehud Barak, among many others.
Ari will be on tour in the UK in February 2014, including an appearance at Jewish Book Week in conversation with journalist Jonathan Freedland - bookings available here. If you would like to request an interview or a review copy of his book, or if you are interested in arranging an event with him during his time in the UK, get in touch with sarah[at]scribepub.co.uk.
