But after October 7th 2023, a day marking the biggest loss of Jewish life in this century, he retreated inwards to ask himself difficult and necessary questions about his beloved nation:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHow could this massacre have happened?\u003cbr\u003eHow could the Netanyahu government, tangled in its web of scandals, fail to protect its citizens?\u003cbr\u003eAnd did October 7 and the war that followed take with it their last hope of a two-state solution?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn eleven essays David Grossman traces the years leading up to that day and the ensuing war through a string of failures by a morally bankrupt party clinging to power.
