I first read The Haj in 1984 when it was first published. I enjoyed the book, but at that time preferred Uris' books about Israel and his novel Trinity.
Recently, I was given a second copy of The Haj. I reread the book in hopes of understanding more of what brought about 9/11 and the constant battle in the Middle East.
Very good book. Today I find it sad and frightning. I hope you gain some knowledge from your first reading or rereading of The Haj. Please, set it free.
