Synopsis

In a raw and unflinching memoir, Eli Sharabi, a survivor of 491 days in Hamas captivity, recounts the harrowing ordeal of his abduction from Kibbutz Be’eri on October 7th, 2023, the loss of his wife and daughters, and his unyielding resolve to survive. “I refuse to let myself drown in pain. I am surviving. I am a hostage. In the heart of Gaza. A stranger in a strange land. In the home of a Hamas-supporting family. And I'm getting out of here. I have to. I’m getting out of here. I’m coming home.”—Eli Sharabi On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists stormed Kibbutz Be’eri, shattering the peaceful life Eli Sharabi had built with his British wife, Lianne, and their teenage daughters, Noiya and Yahel. Dragged barefoot out his front door while his family watched in horror, Sharabi was plunged deep into the suffocating darkness of Gaza’s tunnels. As war raged above him, he endured a grueling 491 days in captivity, all the while holding onto the hope that he would one day be reunited with his loved ones.

📚 Why We Recommend It

A taut, first-person memoir by an Israeli father held 491 days by Hamas. Eli Sharabi writes with restraint and clarity, taking you from basement-to-tunnel captivity—starvation, humiliation, and the small mental tricks that kept him alive—to the shattering moment he learned his wife and two daughters were murdered. Crucially, the book keeps the spotlight on those still missing, turning survival into a call to conscience. Timely and human, the English edition publishes on Oct 7, 2025—essential reading if you care about real lives inside the headlines.
