Journey To Nowhere

Eva Figes was born in Berlin, came to England with her family just before the outbreak of the Second World War, and has lived in London ever since. She is the author of fourteen works of fiction and six works of non-fiction, including the feminist classic, Patriarchal Attitudes and Tales of Innocence and Experience (2003).

'Fusing history and memoir, Eva Figes's polemical account of the creation of Israel is bewitchingly told - [a] luminously personal chronicle' Sunday Times 'A brave book. It is Figes's status as a victim of persecution that gives her the courage and authority to condemn Israel's treatment of the Palestinians' - Observer 'An impassioned memoir and an inspired polemic' - Scotland on Sunday 'Eva Figes is essentially a novelist, one whose characteristic clarity makes her tales both engaging and piquant - unforgettable and profound' - Scotsman 'Figes is unflinching in her discussion of Israel and America - Her judgement on the occupation is spot on' - Guardian
