"Freedom is the open window through which pours the sunlight of the human spirit and human dignity."
-Herbert Hoover, 31st President of the United States
Enjoy the Mediterranean sunlight flooding in through this antiquated Israeli window. The birds are chirping and there's not a cloud in the sky. Here Gerstein reminisces about the long lazy summer afternoons of his youth, before the advent of the air conditioner. He and his fellow countrymen would sit by the window hoping to catch a breeze, devouring one juicy slice of watermelon after another and washing them down with some sweet lemonade.
A nostalgic homage to the Israel of the 1960s.
