內容簡介
《父親的失樂園》是一個庫爾德猶太家族四代歷經六十年，橫跨伊拉克、以色列、美國三地的真實傳奇。作者阿里埃勒·薩巴爾（Ariel Sabar）是典型的加州男孩，他與古板的猶太父親之間的衝突，是一種縮小版的文明衝突，是古代庫爾德斯坦與20世紀80年代洛杉磯的衝突。
帶著“我是 誰”的疑問，薩巴爾踏上了尋找原鄉之旅，回到孕育古代文明的神秘搖籃、當下備受關注的敏感地帶——歷史上的庫爾德斯坦，即現今位於伊拉克北部的札胡。在這裡，一群庫爾德猶太人在偏僻的山麓地帶生存了近三千年，與穆斯林和基督教徒在伊拉克北部的崇山峻岭間毗鄰而居，和諧共處。群山環繞、與世隔絕的環境讓他們一直保有“離上帝最近的語言”——亞拉姆語。
在荒漠與群山之間，作者尋訪家族的起源，尋求父子和解的良方。在層層追尋之中，他回溯了庫爾德猶太人的千年榮光，探尋了不同族群及信仰間和睦共容的可能，也記錄了少數族群為保有本有文化所經受的磨難。
