DESCRIPTION:Pamela Olson's new book, Fast Times in Palestine, is a memoir about her 
 time working as a young journalist based in Ramallah in 2003-2005. The book 
 combines narrative journalism with tight pacing, adventure, humor, and even 
 romance to make for a page-turning yet intensely informative read.\n\nDr. 
 Hatim Kanaaneh, author of A Doctor in Galilee, called the book "a 
 fascinating combination: wit, adventure, poetry, humane intimacy, and a lot 
 of factual info." Rebecca Vilkomerson, executive director of Jewish Voice 
 for Peace, called it "a moving, inspiring account of life in Palestine 
 that's enormously informative yet reads like a novel."\n\nYou can find a 
 synopsis, excerpts, and more reviews on the author's website: 
 http://pamolson.org/ and the book’s Amazon page: 
 http://www.amazon.com/dp/0615456243.\n\nJoin us in celebrating the 
 publication of this book. The program will feature a short presentation by 
 the author, readings from the book, and Q&A followed by book signings. 
 Copies will be available for purchase.\n\nSponsored by:\nBay Area Jewish 
 Voice for Peace\nNorthern California Friends of Sabeel\nFor more
