Father and son team Dermod and Denis Dwyer took a 3,500-kilometre road trip through the Middle East in 2024, and their journey – both literal and spiritual, man – has been mapped out in a new book, Desert Bonds. Visiting Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, the West Bank and Israel – including time at the Erez Crossing for Gaza – this Greystonian duo set out to have their knowledge of the Middle East both deepened and challenged. As author and journalist Frank McDonald says in his review, this book ‘is full of awareness about the complexity of people and place, as the authors made it their business to find out what lies behind the harrowing conflict in Israel-Palestine’. This launch is a free event, but you need to book right here. And you can grab the book here.
