(JERUSALEM) - “LOVE AND TERROR in the MIDDLE EAST,” 3rd Edition is a true story about facing hostility and passing through a maze of walls and checkpoints in Israel and the West Bank to lead interfaith activities. They are aimed at easing the region’s bloody path to peace.

The aftermath of the murder in the Jenin Refugee Camp of a peace activist friend, Romano returned there to uncover the truth buried deep within the shadows of that mysterious death. A new chapter in this 3rd Edition of Love and Terror in the Middle East, titled “Return to Killing Fields,” documents his struggle to accept yet another senseless death.

It is about having a dream, that some said was crazy, getting bogged with indecision, then finding a solution. Move it, do it! His dream was to HELP BRING PEACE to the MIDDLE EAST. The only way to find out whether there was truth to the dream; he had to travel to the Middle East.

His efforts to promote understanding, communication and cooperation in the region among Jews, Muslims, Christians and non-believers have spanned years of bitter conflict. Passing through a virtually endless maze of checkpoints and walls, he has faced hatred on every side.

“I’ve been harassed and arrested by the Palestinian police, harassed and arrested by Israeli police and Israeli soldiers and attacked by Israeli settlers,” Romano says. “A peace activist friend was recently murdered in the West Bank.”

His publicist said, “Few of us will ever experience the devastating horror of living within a war zone. Yet all of us know what it means to form a life-long, sustaining connection with another human being. Together, they weave a spellbinding story ultimately affirming the possibility of peace and reconciliation. In Love and Terror in the Middle East, 3rd Edition (World Audience Publishers), readers walk the war-torn streets of Israel and the West Bank with peace activist Frank Romano, and struggle with the inevitable casualties within his personal life as it becomes caught up in his work.”

Dr. Romano is a professor at the University of Paris and member of the California and French Bars.
