Jerusalem

"Jerusalem is the story of a single family--three generations of very different people--as they are swept up in the chaos of nation-making from 1940 to 1948. Love, death, faith, family, and politics form the perilous mix that fuels this ambitious, cinematic graphic novel about the events surrounding the creation of the modern Israeli state."--Dust jacket. This graphic novel follows a single family, three generations and fifteen very different people, as they are swept up in chaos, war, and nation-making from 1940 to 1948 in what became Israel.
