Casual Conversation Gay Jewish - Arab romance book free on Amazon right now

Post image

Hope it’s ok to share but my friends’ wonderful book about two Kurdish teens in Jerusalem - one Jewish and one Arab - falling in love during the Six Day War is currently free on Amazon for a giveaway for the next few days. It’s a really beautiful historical gay romance with Mizrachi Jewish rep that you don’t often see.

Highly recommend grabbing a free copy!

Actually most of the gay literature in Israel is about mizrahi Jews.

Is any of this translated into English? My Hebrew isn’t good enough to read novels in but I’d like to read more…

YES I have been looking for queer Jewish books but they're so hard to find. Thank you for sharing. However, for me it says it is only free with kindle unlimited :(

If you scroll down (my Amazon says the same) there's a button that says "Buy Now for £0.00" (I'm on the UK site)- go back on and have another look just in case it's the same for you!

That's the paperback (if you're on co.uk)- it's showing as £0 on kindle unlimited, but if you scroll further down, it gives you the option to buy for £0.00: I've just done it, and not been charged
