Summary: | In Beer-Sheba, the town of Abraham, an old man lies dying - a little man from Poland, earthbound and a stranger, particularly to his one, unforgiving son, Daniel. Once the little man, Haim Kalinsky, had to play God - when Nazis sodiers forced him to choose which of his two sons would live and which would be shot. Instinctively the father chose Shmuel, and left Daniel to fate. Now Fate has come full circle - for Shmuel died, while Daniel ultimately reached safety in Israel, there to grow into a strong handsome man, marred only by the memory of Yoram, his best friend, whose death is Daniel's guilt. --From publisher's description.
