A slowcore, haunting set of memories by Israel’s most famous historic personality. Each chapter splits into two with the first one describing the events from selected portions of biblical stories, and the second one talking about Dayan's own life experiences related to mentioned locations and narratives - battles, people, archeological finds (Dayan's thing), intimate memories.
This book is nothing close to what one would expect from an iconic military man, and the language is extremely beautiful. I would probably re-read it in 20 years from now, just to get myself into that meditative state once more.
