520    There is no escaping the Jerusalem of the religious 
       imagination. Not once but three times holy, its 
       overwhelming spiritual significance looms large over the 
       city's complex urban landscape and the diurnal rhythms and
       struggles that make up its earthbound existence. 
       Nonetheless, writes Paola Caridi, in this intimate and 
       hard-hitting portrayal of the city, it is possible to 
       close one's eyes and, "like the blind listening to sounds,
       " discern the conflict and plurality of belonging that 
       mark out the city's secular character. Jerusalem without 
       God leads the reader through the streets, malls, suburbs, 
       traffic jams, and squares of Jerusalem's present moment, 
       into the daily lives of the men and women who inhabit it. 
       Caridi brings contemporary Jerusalem alive by describing 
       it as a place of sights and senses, sounds and smells, but
       she also shows us a city riven by the harsh asymmetry of 
       power and control embodied in its lines, limits, walls, 
       and borders. She explores a cruel city, where Israeli and 
       Palestinian civilians sometimes spend hours in the same 
       supermarkets, only to return to the confines of their 
       respective districts, invisible to each other; a city 
       memorable for its ancient stones and shimmering sunsets 
       but dotted with Israeli checkpoints, "postmodern 
       drawbridges," that control the movement of people, ideas, 
       and potential attackers. Describing Jerusalem through the 
       lenses of urban planners and politicians, anthropologists 
       and archaeologists, advertisers and scholars, Jerusalem 
       with God reveals a city that is as diverse as it is 
       complex and, ultimately, argues its author, one whose 
       destiny cannot be tied to any single religious faith, 
       tradition, or political ideology. -- Back cover
