Description: **Herman Wouk's classic novel moves on from the grand themes which have won him international acclaim - war, the fate of nations, and the indomitable spirit of man - to the quest for identity, in the clash between the Inside of faith and family and the Outside of the glittery American dream.** Inside, Outside sweeps through ***more than sixty years, from the pre-war, pre-atomic innocence of the twenties and thirties to the turbulent immediate past.*** Scenes of rollicking family humour and show-business comedy alternate with sudden tragedy, the spectacle of a falling President and the explosion of war. A bittersweet first love, relived after forty years, and a tense **secret wartime mission between Washington and Jerusalem** call forth the author's renowned storytelling gift. An intense, personal book about intimate things, Inside, Outside is a merry, poignant, sometimes ribald **picture of the American Jewish experience, by a master at the peak of his powers.**
