Reseña del libro "As Figs in Autumn a Memoir: One Year in a Forever War (en Inglés)"

Set against the diverse landscapes of Israel, Bastomski's journey from Ivy League university to the Israeli army is a deeply personal memoir chronicling his journey out of grief and finally finding his own way back home. In his final college semester, Ben awakens to read on his computer screen about the death of his classmate and childhood friend Avi. Avi's death is sudden and senseless, killed by a drunk driver on his way back to his dorm. Here begins Ben's story of coming to terms with loss and finding his way to adulthood. In the fall of 2010, with his new degree in Moral Philosophy, Ben boards a plane to Israel to enlist in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). Though Ben has never held a gun, before the next summer ends, he is a trained sharpshooter. His service takes him from the Negev Desert to the Occupied Territories and Gazan border, all while finding "home" at a southern kibbutz where he is adopted as a brother and son. From Providence, Rhode Island to California and at last to Israel where Ben joins Mahal, the special set of non-Israeli-born Jews who volunteer in the IDF, he finds family where never expected, a place of his own in the Israeli mosaic. In a memoir that is both a coming-of-age story and epic ballad, Bastomski's lyrically told story is intensely personal and ultimately universal.
