Published originally in Hebrew in 2005, Sharon Rotbard's widely acclaimed, groundbreaking and controversial book White City, Black City challenges Tel Aviv's official narrative. The book shows how Tel Aviv's tale of a modernist 'White City' had 'emerged from the dunes' and gained international recognition which led to Tel Aviv's inscription in UNESCO's World Heritage Sites list, and how it served as a fundamental element in the building of both the city and the national identity, culture and rhetoric. However, behind this skyline a palimpsest remains of a city whose history has been buried. White City, Black City offers a new story, in which Tel Aviv is born in Jaffa and is shaped according to its conflict with Jaffa, thus influencing the fate of Palestine, Israel and the Middle East. This new urban parable is not only about architecture, building and writing, but also at its heart about war, destruction, erasure, and the erasure of the erasure.
