Shlomo Izre’el

Joab

Fiction

“This is the story of King David told by his nephew and army commander, Joab, three millennia after the fact. Events now look quite different from those as told by the court journalist, whose records have come to us in the Bible. In his sixth novel, Jack Lawson makes us look again at David—with compassion and love, knowledge, wit and humor—yet with eyes wide open at a man as quintessentially human as ourselves.”
