Isifingqo
Ilandisa ngokuhlangenwe nakho kombhali eDolobheni Elingcwele phakathi kuka-Agasti 2008 noJulayi 2009. Eshade noNadège, isisebenzi se-Doctors Without Borders (MSF), uDelisle nezingane zakhe ezimbili ezincane bathuthela kwa-Israyeli ukuze unina akwazi ukuhamba naye emsebenzini wakhe. Ngokukhethekile, bagcina behlala efulethini eBeit Hanina, indawo yasePalestina eMpumalanga Jerusalem. UNadège wabelwa isikhundla sokusiza abantu basePalestina, kanti uDelisle, engenamsebenzi ofanele, ngokushesha uqala ukuzulazula emigwaqweni nasemakhoneni afihliwe aseJerusalema.
Ngohambo lwakhe, uDelisle uhamba nomfundi, ukuze azibonele izinto ngamehlo akhe. Ngale ndlela, sibona ukungcola okuhlobene kwe-East Jerusalem kanye nemigwaqo yasePalestine. Kule ndaba, sizobona ukhahlo lokuphepha kwa-Israyeli singaqondile, futhi sizophinde sihlangabezane nobunzima bokufinyelela eNtabeni Yethempeli.
Sibona ukuvakasha kwe-Mea Shearim, indawo eseJerusalema ehlala amaJuda angama-Orthodox kuphela. Siphinde sibone ukweqisa kwezifiki zakwa-Israel, ukuvakasha kukaPapa Benedict, namabhishi aseTel Aviv.

U-Delisle kumele anakekele izingane zakhe ngenkathi umkakhe engekho, kodwa futhi, ngaphezu kwakho konke, izici eziningi ezingavamile, izinto ezixakile kanye nezinto ezingenangqondo ezivamile zaseJerusalema ezitholwa umbhali ekuzulazuleni kwakhe: imingcele yenkululeko yokuhamba, ukusesha umzimba kanye nokuphenywa okuhlelekile, ukungqubuzana phakathi kwemiphakathi eyahlukene yamaKrestu ephethe i-Holy Sepulcher.
Umbhali unikeza ukuthinta okusangulukisayo kodwa ngesikhathi esifanayo efaka inhlekisa, lapho umbhali echaza khona ukuthi kunezinto ezingaqondwa kuphela uma uvakashele eJerusalema futhi lapho uthola into entsha, unesidingo sokuhlanganyela okuthile okuthakazelisayo.
I-Análisis
Incwadi ethi Jerusalem Chronicles iyisithombe esihlulekile sika-Israyeli ngoba “uDelisle ulandisa ingxenye yendaba kuphela futhi udala isithombe, okungenani, esiholela ekudidekeni okukhulu mayelana nengxabano yaseMpumalanga Ephakathi.”
U-Delisle uhamba endaweni eseduze kakhulu nengxabano ye-Israel-Palestine. Ukuhlala eMpumalanga yeJerusalema kusho ukuba eduze nokungqubuzana phakathi kwezifiki ezingamaJuda nama-Arab, kanye nesiphithiphithi esiba khona lapho amasosha, ababhikishi, abashisekeli, nezintatheli ezingamadlangala zihlangana ndawonye. U-Delisle ukhona futhi uhamba ezindaweni ezinezinkinga, futhi wabelana ngemibono yakhe nomfundi.
Encwadini enezithombe, uvuma kalula ukuthi akajwayelene nengxabano kanye nokungazi kwakhe ngokukhuphuka nokwehla kwesifunda. Umdwebi wezithombe ungumlingiswa wakhe, eziveza njengoMark Twain wekhulu lama-21, "ongenacala kwamanye amazwe." Uma uyijabulele le ndatshana, ngiyakumema ukuthi ufunde inoveli kaCarlos Ruiz Zafón , *The Shadow of the Wind* .
