Synopsis
Most people know Israel through headlines. In , Tal Shalev invites readers to discover it through stories.
Set in Jerusalem and across Israel, these twenty-two stories introduce unforgettable characters navigating friendship, marriage, family, love, loss, and the quiet absurdities of everyday life.
