Extract

Standing in Jerusalem's “no man's land” amidst barbed wire, prickly pear bushes and shell-shattered houses not all of which are unoccupied, and looking across to Jordan, the outlines of buildings—a hospital and a university—are to be seen on Mount Scopus, buildings that belong to Israel and are on an oasis in alien Arab territory. Each fortnight Israeli police, who act as caretakers, are given a Jordanian escort to take them to and from this isolated bit of Israel where, stagnating in a kind of museum without any visitors, are thousands of books and other valuable equipment. Although a convoy crosses to Jordan so frequently, the Israelis are not allowed to take any of their possessions back to their own country.
