...agent--so he feels he has to promote himself, even to his own family. (He refers to Kafka as "one of my predecessors.") The rest of his life is getting away from him too. His tennis game isn't what it used to be. His wife, restless in his shadow, has turned to writing and got a story in the New Yorker. She has also called off their marriage, leaving their two sons shuffling back and forth between alternate parents. Bernard advises the boys (badly) on dating and on which of the books they're studying is second rate...

The opposition--which is dominated by an assortment of far-right settlers from the West Bank, messianic rabbis, religious extremists and restless teenagers--has virtually hijacked the disengagement issue from the Gaza residents, who voice their dissent in acts of denial.
