ABSTRACT

I am and always was very Israeli in all my being. And although during these years [in London] I felt less and less of that sense of belonging, I still felt I am an Israeli and felt very strong about my identity. However, when I returned, I felt I did not belong here anymore because things have happened here that I was not a part of. I belonged to that country that I left behind years ago. This country does not exist anymore apart from its existence in my memory.
