We Will Dance Again: A novel about October 7th and Jewish resilience Kindle Edition

by Aviva Gat (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.8 out of 5 stars 41 ratings
October 7th, 2023, Israel: the day the world changed.

When the sirens started at 6:29 am, Tehila was packing a picnic for her family in their southern Kibbutz home and Dana was celebrating love with her boyfriend at an outdoor rave.

Shai, a former counter-terrorist soldier jumps to action to protect his country for his young son; while politician and the army’s former chief of staff Alon wants to lend his expertise.

In Gaza, Aisha is taken by surprise, but she hopes for better days and will do anything for the return of her twins who were wrongfully arrested by the Israeli army.

Across the globe, Ethan, a Harvard freshman, wakes up and is unsure what to think of the situation until he feels personally targeted on campus.

Inspired by true events, We Will Dance Again tells the story of how an entire nation was changed in an instant. It is the story of loss, resilience, and the unbreakable spirit of hope.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Book that Everyone Should Read
    Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2025

    I wondered if it is too soon for historical fiction to be written about October 7th. Well it’s not because everyone needs to be educated on what has happened.

    We Will Dance Again begins early morning on the Black Sabbath of Saturday October 7th, 2023; when all the horror began. It is told through six points of view, Tehila is a mother of two red headed boys who lived in a kibbutz in the south, Dana went with her boyfriend to the Nova festival, Shai is a former counter terrorist soldier who is called into service, Alon is the army’s former chief of staff who is called to join the war cabinet, Aisha is a women who lived in Gaza, and Ethan is a freshman at Harvard University. The story ends on May 14th, 2024 Yom Haatzamaut (Israel’s Independence Day). Of course we all know that is not where the story ends, because we are still living it. Although Aviva wrote this book to deal with her trauma, she has promised a sequel when this all ends.

    Aviva tells the story in an honest way and an unbiased way. She exposes the truth of what happened, and the mistakes that have been made. She doesn’t sugar coat it, she writes about the hurt, and the anger and the pain. I felt these characters anguish, just as I continue to feel for the families of the hostages that have yet to return. This book is more than 450 pages of pain and sadness, but it is a necessary read for everyone.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A remarkable vison of an ongoing tragedy/
    Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2025
    Verified Purchase
    I saw the title and the five stars and bought the book, with some trepidation. Wasn't it too early to write novels about an ongoing events? I was proved wrong, as I read this remarkably moving book. It captures the almost kaleidoscopic images of this complicate tragic event and its tragic repercussions. Gat has captured the variety of responses from both the Israeli and Palestinian persons effected byu these horrifying events. Well written and based on fat, I heartily recommen d this book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A powerful read for Jews and non-Jews
    Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2025
    Verified Purchase
    I downloaded this amazing book on the day it was released on 1/14/2025. Even though it is a “novel” it is based on true facts from the day Hamas attacked Israel on 10/7/2023. Aviva Gat drew me into this book on the first page. The characters and scenes came to life for me and I was there. Some of it was painful to read and I had to take a break. I am not Jewish and live in the US. I do have cousins that live on a kibbutz in Israel. I highly recommend this timely book to both Jews and Christians.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An Insightful And Important Read
    Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2025
    Aviva Gat was kind enough to provide me with an advanced copy of her novel, which follows the lives of several different characters from October 7, 2023 through the next 220 days. Gat is an American who is raising a family in Israel (Mazel Tov on baby #4!) and writing this novel was a therapeutic exercise for her. In all honesty, this was a tough read. I have been haunted by the attacks on Israel since that horrible day, somewhat obsessively following every piece of news I can find. While the stories are torturous to read, as a Jewish woman (who has visited Israel only twice but feels connected to the land and people regardless), I absolutely feel it's my duty to bear witness; my pain is nothing compared to that of those experiencing the aftermath of the attacks firsthand, so I was intrigued by the premise of Gat's novel. Quite honestly, it was tough going of me for the first half (I read in small bits and pieces), though I was intrigued by the multiple viewpoints and experiences of each character - a Nova Festival survivor, a mother taken hostage with her young sons, a soldier, a member of the Israeli war cabinet, an American college student, and the wife of a Hamas terrorist (plus her "prisoner" - a female Israeli soldier). All of these people are based - either loosely or quite factually - on real people it seems, and their myriad experiences are well fleshed out, intriguing and searingly painful at times. After the first 50% of the book, I found my footing, got used to the frequent switching of viewpoints, and was able to immerse myself in the various compelling stories. Gat also intersperses articles from the Times Of Israel and speeches by different high-profile figures (all of them real) to add more gravitas. If you’re up to the read, I highly recommend it. It’s an authentic and unflinchingly honest look at what happened - and is continuing to happen - in Israel, and I learned quite a bit about what it's been like to reside there during this incredibly challenging time. Gat's novel is saturated with heartbreak, sorrow, anger and hope, and I look forward to a sequel. Thank you Aviva - this is such an important piece of writing.

    Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2025

    I received an e-ARC copy of We Will Dance Again.

    Plot:

    We Will Dance Again by Aviva Gat is a fictional novel that explores a post Oct 7th world that follows Tehila who was packing a picnic for her family in their southern Kibbutz home, Dana who was celebrating love with her boyfriend at an outdoor rave, Shai, a former counter-terrorist soldier who is ready jump into action to protect his country for his young son, politician and the army’s former chief of staff Alon, Aisha who is hoping for the return of her twins who were arrested by the Israeli army and Ethan, a Harvard freshman who is unsure what to think of the situation until he personally feels targeted on campus.

    What I liked: This was a very-well written and important read, the characters were very well developed and the author accurately portrayed what it is like to be Jewish post Oct 7th.

    What I didn’t like: Some of the characters’ voices sounded too similar.

    Overall rating: 4/5

    TRIGGER WARNINGS: Oct 7th terror attack, rape, gang rape, torture, terrorism, terror, kidnapping

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read about October 7th
    Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2025
    This is a novel based on the facts of the October 7th war. It follows six individuals from different walks of life (Israelis, Gazans and a US college student) through that terrifying day and beyond. It wasn't an easy read, but an important one. I am looking forward to the sequel to find out what happens to some of the characters. Thank you for writing this important book, Aviva Gat!
