With the IsraeliPalestinian Peace process still unresolved, the man who led the emerging Palestinian state through the turbulent postArafat era, former Prime Minister Ahmed Qurie, unveils for the first time his record of the 1993 Oslo negotiations which led to this point. The charismatic Qurie, also known as Abu Ala, was pivotal to the Oslo and postOslo talks, and the real, if volatile, friendships he formed with his Israeli counterparts Uri Savir and Shimon Peres helped create a fundamental shift in both sides' perception of the other. Qurie's story offers a longawaited perspective on the protracted and often nailbiting negotiations which changed the Middle East forever. The issues which the Oslo talks came so close to, but ultimately failed in, resolving namely, refugees, borders, security, Jerusalem, are now once again on the negotiating table. In this context, Qurie's candid account of secret deals, hoarselyargued compromises and astonishing voltefaces assumes huge importance for historians and for those shaping the future of Palestine and the peace process.From Oslo to Jerusalem is not only an indispensable record, but also a compelling narrative of the drama, emotion and personalities behind a turningpoint in the history of the modern Middle East.
